The bell rings (or at least metaphorically, because we don’t actually have a bell anymore). Your teacher doesn’t understand that even one minute of lateness has the potential to disrupt the entirety of your break-time canteen routine. You are released. Without realising, your stride gradually changes from a walk to a run. The power of the canteen now has a grip on you. Past the self-providing snack students you go, whist tripping up staff along the way and not holding the door for anyone. Crucially, you avoid eye contact that might spark conversation – keep your head down. Food is the priority, forget manners. In fact, just leave your moral compass in the pit, there are sausage rolls and steak here.
(Break time) food for thought
