Answers:
Well, it is a lunch meeting. Doesn't that mean that someone will be giving a lecture or talking the whole time.? It won't necessarily be a social thing.

Just sit next to someone you know so you don't feel completely alone. Its fine not to have friends at work, but surely a little idle chit-chat won't hurt. Just ask them question about themselves and then all you have to do is listen.
