RE: Amperage available at an outlet?

Thanks, I found one 20 amp outlet (if the circuit breaker and accompaning wiring is correct). 20 was on the side of the breaker connected to that outlet. It wasn't on the outlet I was expecting. I think the original electrician may only have installed 15 amp circuits and told me that a couple were 20 amp. The outlet is a regular outlet. Will it cause me a problem, by not being a 20 amp (90 degree blade opening on the socket) outlet?

Thanks
