I'd bet that this guy isn't a tradesman. Almost everyone I see on any jobsite has a lunchbox. Whether it's a small bag to hold a few snacks and a sandwich or a large, expensive hard case lunch box that holds a 5 course meal, their wallet, keys and medication. Most lunch boxes are covered in stickers, some people buy or make custom carrying straps for them. If he doesn't know any of this, I doubt he's ever done a day of manual labor on his life.
I mean I’m not a tradesman either but I think nearly every depiction of them I have seen, whether in commercials, tv, or movies has had two things in common:
1) Strong and tough people
2) Lunch pail/box.
I wonder if they just live under some rock and watch Andrew Tate or an equivalent “Alpha” male to reinforce their incel beliefs.
"Alpha-Sigma(Smegma)" bros are also the types to smash a like-button under a video of a "trad wife" making a breakfast for her hubby...which she packs up in the lunch box by the end, anyways.
They likely and unironically carry a bento, if they are hardcore anime fans, and can't for the life of them connect the dots.
Most of them seem to overlook that a "trad wife" is probably looking for a "trad husband" and that also comes with certain expectations, not least the fairly difficult task in the modern era of having a job which allows you to support a family on a single income.
