[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don't understand the big deal. I haven't heard any complaints about the current policy, this is just an extra 30 minutes in the middle of the day. But we have 18 pages of arguments, what's wrong with y'all?[/quote]

You should try eating lunch without your phone and see how long you last![/quote]

I mean, I have a job, so I eat lunch in the lounge with my co-workers much like my kids eat lunch in the cafeteria with their friends. Occasionally we go out to eat. Rarely I will eat at my desk because I have to finish some work.[/quote]

Now imagine you don’t have friends in your lunch period. You have to sit there looking up not talking to anyone while everyone else around you seems to have a group. You also now aren’t allowed to use your phone. You could at least study a bit online or look on schoology or watch a review video. But nope. You aren’t allowed to touch your phone and it’s your own free time. It’s painful and humiliating to sit alone. And then the the fear of having someone discover you don’t have a group or friends to sit with. [/quote]

Do what humans have done for 99.9999999999% of our existence and DEAL WITH IT.

Make new friends, or don't.

Sit alone, or try and talk to others.

Or learn to be by yourself and be able to handle it. Which billions of humans have done throughout human existence.
