[quote=Anonymous]I’m another functional, plenty of friends, happily married adult who had trouble with lunch rooms at schools for my *entire* school career, including college.

God, well do I remember the horror of entering a busy lunch room where it seemed like every other person had someone to sit with besides me. I would’ve been perfectly happy sitting by myself reading a book, except for the fact that I knew it made other people think I was some kind of freak.

The only thing that could’ve made it more horrible was if my parents had gotten involved to try to fix it.

So to me, the teacher’s movie room for lunch sounds awesome! I see no problem here.

Even today, if I am in a work situation where the whole day is spent in meetings or whatever, the absolute last thing I want to do is take my lunch period and be forced to interact with people. Some people just need some quiet thinking time and would rather not have a social activity every. single. day. at lunchtime. Would you want to go out with your coworkers for lunch every day? I would not![/quote]
