How much tea should I be making?

[Onecreamteatoomany]

I'm having a new kitchen fitted and all the associated works - plasterer, flooring guy, electrician etc. I make them all a tea or coffee when they arrive and another one mid morning and then at lunchtime etc (i'm working at home so not just sat about) but they've all acted like they are dying of thirst everytime! How often should I be making drinks?!

On the hour every hour ime.

Leave the stuff out and they can make their own. Saves everyone the hassle.

I think you are awfully nice doing 3 a day. I'd simply direct them to a kettle and tea supplies and leave them to it.

Bloody hell I'm going to have to up my game, they are all coming round tomorrow! Better get some more supplies in.

Leave the supplies out for tea and coffee and tell them to help themselves. Then leave them too it, cheeky fuckers. My DH is a floor layer and would never expect anyone to make him tea or coffee but he appreciates it when people do. He feels a bit awkward though and prefers to make his own (although he will take his own tea bags) if possible.

I leave tea/coffee/biscuits etc out and they can help themselves, I am not tuning round make them a drink every hour or so

Urgh I used to live in house where the landlord and his mate would come.round and cut the grass (nice of them but I'd said I'd rather he didn't but he insisted so I just let him.get on with it). His mate would spend the entire time hammering on the back door demanding I make him cups of tea do usually I'd take myself out for a bit but one time when ds was very little I was trying to get him down for his nap when the stupid knobber hollered up the stairs for.a brew. As an exhausted single mum I didn't take it very well and he never asked for another cup of tea after that...
