Yesterday I had two tradesmen here all day installing ducted heating and cooling in our roof. They were here all day and worked really hard and it was only after they left that I thought - should I have offered a cup of tea? Or water? They went out for lunch so I just assumed they would have whatever they wanted then. But perhaps it would have been polite to offer.
And am I meant to show them where the toilet is and say they're welcome to use it? Or is that just a given?
Incidentally when they left they said everything was good to go, but my husband quickly discovered as the truck pulled away that the heater actually isn't working. I can't help wondering if I'd offered them a drink through the day they might have finished the job off properly.
