RE: Office game
I think WIA's advice on this was "just do it this once or you'll never learn."
No matter how conspiratorial you think you are, everyone in your office will know within a week. Chicks keep secrets, they just do it as a group.
If this is a place you'd want to work, pass it up. Stay social, not skeezy. You can consider keeping the lead warm and following up after one of you is done with the internship.

RE: Office game
I've never understood this "don't shit where you eat" thing. Coworkers hook up everywhere. Thing is they do it as a result of fun. They go out, have some fun and leave together, spend the rest of the night and next day at work they are normal. I see it all the time. All it really takes is to be chill non needy fun and normal after the hook up.
As for approaching at work in cafeteria. I do it a lot. But I DO NOT go direct. I just chat up about something relevant and once the conversation starts I carry it on with some flirting and stuff.
Yesterday in cafeteria I was checking something on the laptop and I noticed this girl that often see there. She looked at me [just like you mentioned] and I said "how do you know when I have my breaks?". Of course she didn't get it at first. So I continued.. "Very often you come here when I'm already here I don't know whether I should be flattered that you want to see me or worried that you're stalking me". She laughed, didn't know what to say, etc, I said something, she said something, convo started, we sat down and talked more, etc etc.
Other time I heard random people talking about something I knew about and I just joined conversation. There was a hot girl in the group so I addressed her a bit more than others and that's how it went.
My typical office approaches.

I think it's a good rule for newbies and anyone not sufficiently socially adept, particularly in the office environment. Like "if you have to ask, don't do it." Too many ways for it to go wrong, with limited upside.
That's true, if someone doesn't even know how to do then he's likely to fail at it.
What I'm getting at is 2 things:
1. People usually hook up through school, work and social circle. Even though we view it as risky it is still the standard in society. So that's somewhat expected in general that once you put bunch of people in one office some people will hook up no matter what. Here's the thing.. nongame guys don't do direct approaches on girls sitting alone and eating in work cafeteria. They're just polite, friendly and bit flirty, talk about whatever, go out together to drink and hook up like that. It takes weeks, not 2 days.
2. I don't know why gaming = shitting. To me good game is very subtle. It stays under the radar by default. An attractive guy is attractive in general and girls notice it no matter where they are. Good social awareness/intuition allows to game the girl in high pressure situation (work) in a subtle way. Going out for a drink or two is just a form of relaxing and unwinding, it's nothing serious. Reading green lights is easy. Escalating in appropriate moments is no rocket science. Keeping it fun and not serious is almost given in such scenario. You go with the flow and steer it in certain direction and things happen.
It's funny to see how differently girls react outside of work, after some beers and shots, how open they are and sexual they get even when they didn't give any signals before in more formal setting. It's like they get comfortable with you at work at first and when you all go out they're there for the taking
