I've been on a farm harvesting and the farmer asked if us if we wanted to plow afterward. I and my co worker said yes please, then he said to us "Sorry I can't hire plowers ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!" I right then and there without fiishing harvesting. Not because I wanted to plow but because this guy was being so obnoxious about it.

I would have put him on ignore and left too. I loathe people like that.

Have had some bad experiences hiring lately. One person thanked me profusely for helping them level up & then left not finishing, Had a couple of nutters too but that's life & I'm building up my buddy list. Had some great times being an employee, met some wonderful people & generally had fun. Personally I would never beg in the market place but I also have a great laugh at their expense. Enjoy P.s hate the people who at least dont say thankyou

I'm one of those farmers that just wants the job done. I don't even go back to my farm now until a little later in the day usually after I hire someone. I don't feel any need to stand around and watch what they are doing and I don't have any desire to chat with people. I just want the work done. If someone is upset because I'm not chatting with them on my farm they can give up their crop profit or experience points and go elsewhere to be hired.

What I am seeing alot lately is someone asking "If you want a job stand by me" or "If you want a job say my name" and the whole MP "runs over to the hirer. If my avatar was real it would be trampled to death.

I stay put right where I am and I stay quiet. This usually gets me the job.

[I]I just enjoy playing Farm Town... I go to the Market Place to get jobs to harvest or plow... My computer is slow at times... but that's ok... I just do what I can and am learning... It is fun...

Sure don't like when people get cranky or ugly... no need for that...

Enjoy!!![/i]

its more likely to get hired of you arent begging.... the ones who beg constantly dont even see the times when people are looking for employees so the end up missing out lol

people find creative ways to hire people to weed out the obnoxious beggars. At least thats why I did. There have been times that I asked a question and hired the person who responded by saying something like I wish I knew the answer cuz I really need coins. lol

I need to rant...sorry!

I am fed up with...people who come to harvest and don't read instructions given to them....I have a lot of crops under the trees etc....I ask for them to turn the trees off...send them personal messages...send them notes...almost always totally ignored....IT DRIVES ME MAD...I even stipulate what is needed when I hire them, and ask them to ask for work by my name...just to make sure they can read and understand....still ignored.

Then on the other hand....I hate going to work for other farmers who hire a number of workers...who end up falling over one another and getting very little for the pleasure.

Sorry folks ...Rant over
