Nothing like a fresh hot meal at lunch when you are in the middle of
nowhere. Construction workers are natural born scroungers, and I
think there are some guys that can make just about anything out of
about just about nothing. Our little pit went with us from house to
house for a while, and was easily rebuilt as needed.


My painters, and tile guys/gals, all bring microwaves onsite.

Sitting on paint buckets in the shade, and heating up homemade tacos and
burritos at noon, then onto a piece of cardboard from the dumpster for a
siesta, is daily SOP.

Smells so good sometimes I have to go find a Mexican joint, instead of
my usual fruit lunch ...


My last job was running a boom truck for an electrical contractor so
never knew where I would end up at lunch time, and if there was
something hanging from the boom I wasn't moving. The truck had a
welder generator on it so I had a small microwave in one of the tool
boxes. Never did care for fast food so it worked well in the wet NW
winters.
