We had modern versions of these in the 90s. The desks were dope too, you could store your lunch in there and school meals were subsidised enough that people usually wouldn’t steal.
Also you could keep your slingshot, stash of cherry bombs, firecrackers, ar-15 ammunition, nazi memorabilia, and nuclear arsenal launch codes in there and no one would say a thing. Sigh the world is too safe now.
I get ptsd just by looking at the picture. sitting in that thing for 6-hrs doing time-constrained exams in a mass hall with 1000 other students… fuck fuck

Are those desks with built-in chairs? Is that actually a thing?
You don’t have these?
Even in college, I’m sitting in these horrible things.
Reminds me of these:
And the only time I saw one of those was on a school trip when we learned about life during WW2

I have never in my life encountered one.

They make THE BEST spine-crackers. You missed out.
It has been 16 years since high school and I still miss cracking my back on these things.
They absolutely are/were
So what did you do when you needed to move around to do group work or anything that required a larger table?
I got pretty good at squatting and moving them around like I was wearing a go-kart costume.
Absolute hero
They could be moved and made to face each other
