Too many students, too few lockers? Both my highschools were so crowded that everyone had to share lockers with at least one other person.

I don't think I ever had a locker that was even remotely close to any of my classes.

WHY THE FUCK IS MY LOCKER ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCHOOL FROM MY HOMEROOM
Bored, sadistic administrators.  The root of all effective evil.

Too many students, too few lockers?
Impossible, just assign lockers near the homeroom-

In 11th grade (I think) I literally never used my locker once. It was just so out of the way of everything. And maybe I'm weird but I got a weird sense of pride (and presumably strong back muscles) from walking around with 30 pounds of stuff on my back all day.

I assume it was about cod tendies and an austerity-caused crunch in the supply of good boy points.

My legs are sore at all times.

I don't. Constantly walking around with stuff on my back is easily one of the most negative experiences I've had in my life. I immediately switched to a shoulder-based item stash once I've got out of that hellish place.

Hey, I did the same thing. Except from middle school onward.

All I got from it is spinal damage that's probably going to eventually take surgery to fix, caused by a lower back that looked like it should have been on a 40 year old when I was 18.

We don't have lockers in our school.

I think my back muscles are developing well.

Protip - Simply tightening up your backpack straps to be almost as tight as they can be prevents a lot of back pain and is the way that backpacks are supposed to be worn (they aren't butt-packs).

Not that I think any of you are stupid enough to try to carry a lot with loose backpack straps, but just in case. :P

Yeah, it would have been nice if someone -- anyone -- had said that when I was about 10 or 12 or so :V

Extra points from being poor enough to not really afford good backpacks, so buttpack is just about the only option :P

Though not having 40-50 lbs of books to be toting around would have helped, too. Praise be for our next generations when goddamn textbooks are phased out for digital mediums. So much lighter ;_;

My tailbone just ached in sympathy.  Yeah, wearing the weight higher is usually preferable.  When backpacking one learns to tighten straps properly, then loosen them when it's time to unload.  It's well worth the hassle.

I do that with everything but textbooks. My backpack doesn't have enough space for everything I have.

I'm pretty sure I was the aggressor here, but this was too weird/funny not to post.

I think your caution was advisable. He might have been a vicar.
