Sack Lunches A Hot Issue

Food is good. School lunches are okay. Sack lunches are predictable. Mondays are boring. Wednesdays are close to the weekend. Fridays are prime for groovin'. For some hidden reason, we are forced to combine groovin' with predictable.

The lunch ladies in our lunch room give us a sack lunch on the best day of the week. First of all, we shouldn't be getting a lunch from a sack. we pay for warm lunch on a plastic tray. If we wanted a ham sandwich and mini bag of chips, we could have brought it from home and spiced it up with cookies and soda.

Secondly, if we have no other choice but a sack lunch, couldn't we at least have it on Monday or even Tuesday? That would make Friday look even better. Giving us the pre-bagged lunch on the most dreaded Monday would make the cursed day complete. Feeding us tray food on Friday would give us abundant energy throughout the weekend. No matter what day the lunch ladies schedule it, a sack lunch would be displeasing. Even the celery and carrots in those bags aren't good!
