How can the first employee arrive at the farm AFTER the second employee arrives? Are they going to do another job first?

I'd love to know the answer as it's a bit embarrasing to have 2 harvesters on a titchy field!
Thank you

Yes the first person you hired has already accepted another job when he/she gets there she weighs up whether the crop is worth doing and if she decides not, having held your hire request on her screen, she then accepts yours and arrives late at your place.
