>>> new employees will be asked to answer a range of questions about their socio-economic background, including whether they were entitled to free school meals as a child<<<<

I must say I grew up in a "lower socioeconomic" neighborhood in Cleveland. No free lunches! Pack a PB & J or hustle home for lunch (with parents permission). Moved from there in 1969 to the 'burbs. Still, there were only "reduced price" lunches (NOT free, you had to pay something), but most kids that might have qualified were too embarrassed to do that. PB & J all the way...

Back at ya Buckeye =^)

Yes. When I was in sixth grade, they needed cafeteria workers, so I signed up. Work every other day and get free lunch everyday. What a help that was!
