Discussions about Hiring and Hiring Practices

[Rita's farm]

today i once again chose to hire others to work my 15 expanded farms. It seems no matter what i do or who i hire I end up with a person that is rude,today i was called stupid and my farm sucked. So I ask why do people have such rude attitudes?????

The best advice I can give is to ignore it. Folks are looking to get a rise out of you. If you find kind farmers that will come do the work and thank you for it, add them to your buddy list so you can hire them again; that is if they're in the marketplace.

Keep in mind there are a lot of juveniles playing the game, you can pick them out just by the way they act or ask to be hired. For example, plsssssssssss hireeeeeeeeeee meeeee.

I have had my share of rudeness over the last few years and trust me, just ignore them. If you encounter it on your farm, or in the marketplace, click on their avatar and click on ignore. If they are abusive, click their avatar and choose report.

Good luck.

If someone wants the extra crops from hiring at the marketplace I wouldn't add the good hires to your buddy list, but keep a written list so that you could look at the list when hiring from the marketplace, now if you don't worry about the extra crops then yes I would add them to your buddy list. I don't know if the extra crops is worth worrying about or not, I am into mostly decorating right now instead of worrying about my facilities. I agree with the rest of your post, some people are just rude, that is why I don't go to the marketplace, especially since I have some big tools to do my own.

I wonder if the bonus box may in some cases have the effect of making us reluctant to make buddies or neighbours out of good workers we come across. Most of my old neighbours were people I hired, liked, and eventually friended.

It's definitely made me regret that I recently added my favorite market workers as friends and neighbors. C'est la vie ....

I quite agree, I don't often go to the market place now because of that reason, just because I don't have the' all tools' doesn't mean I can't work for people, there should be a way of tracing these very ignorant people and having them banned from playing the game, I have 16 farms and play mostly twice a day, have been playing several years now, love Farm Town! Keep playing Rita, don't let the nasty people win.

This has been an issue for quite some time. If they are rude, click on their avatar and along with hire options there is a report button. Click it and add them to your blocked list.

Indeed ... I saw one chap in the Market today bragging that when people hired him he would go to their farm and immediately leave and come back to the Market. Seemed to think it a clever lark. Well, I no longer see him. There is no danger that I will accidentally hire him in the future, or be hired by him.

I try not to hire very often because of all the reasons I have read in this thread. I will not work for people who have layers of anything. And I do not like to fish when the water is layered. I put under my avatar no leyers and no fishing. And I leave messages when they do hire me with out paying attention. But my messages are always nice but firm. It seems to me that these are the people, kids that were not raised to understand what polite is. I will block them for a couple of weeks then unblock them to see if they have grown up yet. Hiring is hard enough when they only do half of what they were hired for to begin with. GGGGGGGGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometime when I hired someone who stating they have all tools and finds out they lied, but how can I fired the player before it finished it off?
