Maintaining and managing a good diet for real tradey???

what do u mean, we are the most important people on a job site lol. without power you wont have any tools to do anything.

lol wut? can always resort to hand tools if you have to
last time i checked frames where the most important
*braces self for massive argument over which trade is the most important*
 
what was that? no power, no tools? magical machine call generator. muhuhahahaha the framers are unstoppable!
 
No argument. The people that pay you lazy tradies to do fuck all for 3/4 of the day are the most important.

Had blokes here building and installing a new shed and equipment. Never seen people stand around so much. Could have done their days work in about 2 hours if they actually did something. Not to mention knock off at about 2pm on Fridays. The tuff life of a tradie. Lol.
 
Haha bazza
I'm a sparky too mate. Here's what I do (meal wise)
Forget about the microwave if you can't get to one regularly.
I buy 2.3 kgs of chicken breast. Cook it all up on the grill on Sundays. Divide it up into 100g portions and put in little lunch boxes. Put them in the freezer. The night before get one or two out so they are thawed for lunch/breaks the next day. Pack a couple of apples and a thermos of something to drink.
You only need to sort out food once a week this way. Healthy and stress free and a lot cheaper than buying your food.
You can make a week worth of sandwiches the same way.

This will save you a good $50 a week at least too. Keep in a small esky with ice brick!!

2pm every day mate! Lol
 
electric fry pan, gas cookers??? we don't have time to sit and cook lunch lol. By the time its lunch time, the food isn't that cold anyway. I've had cold spaghetti and lasagne for lunch, its not bad. Come to think of it, I've been an electrician for almost 14 years and have never heated my lunch up once. Mind you I make tuna sandwiches once in a while.

Thats what apprentices are for
