This and wall high lockers in high school

[–] C8r9VwDUTeY3ZufQRYvq@sopuli.xyz 4 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

I had a locker in high school. It was against a wall. Admittedly, it was in a dedicated locker area/room and not in a major plot-device-friendly thoroughfare, but it existed all the same.

We had lockers in high school but they were always in a large open area. Putting them against a wall in a corridor would be stupid as it would almost always lead to blockages.

I also never knew anyone who had a huge locker large enough to be stuffed into, like always seems to happen on American TV.

Yeah, but all the lockers were stacked in rows with 2 short lockers instead of 1 tall one.

My high school was like a community college campus where we had a set of books in the class+set at home and had to walk to all our classes to different buildings outside. It sucked in the winter time a lot.

I'm not sure what this means?

Lots of lockers portrayed in media are the type that go from the floor all the way up the wall. I don’t know about other schools, but my lockers were all pretty small and there were several on top of each other.

I figured there were some like that.

Yeah but I grew up in NJ where my school was 400 students and that was pretty common because most towns are really small. So I imagine space wasn't as big of an issue as other big schools face.

I'm pretty sure the average intake for my school was about 1,000 per year.

Some people had very small lockers but most of us had the half height ones. But there were definitely a few where you could barely fit books in unless you put them in at an angle.
