I'm also kind of sick of people who think they are entitled to my entire farm when I hire them. I'll hire 2-3 people depending on the conditions in the market place. I don't have time to sit around and wait for people to respond. If I don't get a quick response there I move on to hiring the next person I see there which results in, sometimes, a lot of people hired. If you don't like it leave my farm and get hired at some one elses but don't tell me how many people to hire on my farm.

thank you for explaining how the multiple people hired tends to happen. it sure does help clear that up.

I understand why people want to h/p. It's one time across the farm if you have the combine and just h alone doesn't get xp. I don't like getting hired with others because we end up both doing the same work and one of us not getting credit if the processor is slow. If I do get hired with others I leave that farm. Each to his own.

Depends how many others. If someone's hired the whole market, I'm outta there. But where there's only one other person, and a lot of farms, I will continue working, but not on the same farm.

I am tired of people accepting a job for doing multiple chores and then only do one thing, such as harvest. Then they get mad at me if I hire someone to do everything they have left behind because they say it slows them down. I want a way to fire people.
