Default Issue with tools when hired after update

I've read through the posts and did not see this issue. I don't think it is the same as the tools switching too quickly. Let's see if I can articulate this properly with an example (has happened more than once)...

I am hired from the market to harvest trees, flowers, chop, and fish. I was not hired to harvest or plow. The first farm loads, everything is ready on the farm including h/p, and I have the largest crop harvester in my hand. It used to load the first tool I was hired to use. I click the toolbox and load the shaker for the trees manually. I harvest the all the trees and then again I have the harvester in my hand automatically. I switch to the flower harvester, harvest all the flowers, and again it switches to the harvester. After finishing the chopping, shaking trees, flowers, and fish, it shows the harvester (even though I wasn't hired to harvest crops). I click the walking man and click the bonus box and the game tells me there are harvests left and doesn't let me collect the bonus. The only farms I could collect the bonus on was the farms that had no crop plots.

I tried it with the auto select tools checked and unchecked. Had the farmer hire me multiple times to try different things and nothing worked. The tools showing up for things that we're not hired for is an interesting bug and I'll be watching for the fix. I work in IT and I appreciate all the hard work for the updates but might I suggest a beta tester group on a different server of people who actually play the game to flush out all the bugs before you release it to 2.5 million players in production? User acceptance testing is an integral part of the SDLC that shouldn't be skipped, especially when your users have the option pay for extras in the game.

Again, appreciate the hard work and I'll get back to working on others farms and buying the best stuff when the bugs are fixed.

Respectfully,
Tina
