My SO and I have some contractors coming out to install new windows throughout our home. They will be here for around two days.

SO says that when they were growing up in the Deep South, it was expected that you would provide lunch for the workers if it was a multi-day job. Is that still a thing? What’s the proper etiquette in Texas?

    We got takeout lunch once for movers (not a full day) because it was convenient as we were already getting for ourselves, but otherwise I’ve always thought they’d prefer to leave and take a real break (and also often need to go to the store for something anyway). Maybe if there isn’t any local takeout place nearby I’d offer something. It’s good to keep in mind.
