Lunch is usually $1.75 at my school. You get it on a blue little tray that's divided up into sections. The lunch ladies dish out the entrees, but you do the salad, fruit, etc yourself. The smart kids (like myself
) realized that if you squeeze the entree into one of the little 3"x3" compartments, you can fill up the big 3"x6" compartment w/ salad (all measurements are eyeballed). We've gone through the whole year like this.
So yesterday, the lunch lady tells my friend that he has to pay extra if he's going to get a bigger salad. This is sort of questionable to begin w/ (maybe he should have a nice ice cream or candy bar instead of that salad), but it gets worse. Today we get in there, and salad an additional dollar. All salad is an additional dollar, not just our extra large salad. They have replaced the 3"x"3 compartment of salad w/ a scoop of canned corn, because iceberg lettuce is "too expensive" lately. I haven't been the the grocery store lately, but WTF? Because lettuce is more expensive than normal, we get corn? And how the hell expensive is it, $1.00 for the 3x3" compartment of salad?!
Does anybody else have a problem w/ this? Who should I complain to, student council, the high school administration, the school board, the state?
Please excuse any spelling/grammar mistakes. My lack of green vegtables has left me too tired to proofread
