nope... i never locked mine. 95% of the people at my high school jammed the latches on their lockers so that they would not lock. it's a lot faster that way. we didn't really have a theft problem at my high school. i used to come in every morning and throw my car keys on top of my locker out in the open.

...of course this wasn't your standard high school.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one in the world who dreams about forgetting my locker combination. I had a dream about that just a few nights ago. I graduated high school about 10 years ago.

Weird. I do remember mine, but I also have dreams of being in HS and not remembering it (Graduated 11+ years ago.)

Fresh year my locker didn't lock. Soph year, same story. They moved me to another locker after something got stolen out of it. That one only locked the first 3 times.

Junior year, back again with a no-locking locker.

Senior year, I decided to preempt all the rules and simply carry my laptop bag with everything in it (this was VERY impermissible, but I had the administration by the balls by that point) - I never once even knew which locker was mine.

11-7-42 I had the same locker for 4 years, then my sister had the same locker and homeroom for the next 4 years. That locker practically became part of the family.

Edit: I graduated HS in 84

I'm sure she appreciated it when you left "SpunkyJones was here" with a permanent marker and pictures of nekked boys that she had to tell mom and dad on you.

I graduated the same year and I would be lucky if I could find the school let alone remember something like that.

Nope, but we received new locks every year and I usually didn't put the lock on anyways.
