Discussions about Hiring and Hiring Practices

I have the exact problem you are talking about. No answering, then more than one person on my farm. I have also hired someone, they answered, but not shown.

It happens that one individual can get hired by more than one other farmer..... and they might get both requests, one on top of the other.... if they accept the first, they cannot respond to the second.

I have noticed a lag, or delay in the time someone agrees to be hired, I go to my farm, and then they show up..... 10 seconds or so later

Lately, I harvest 3 or 4 farms at a time....and if I hire to plow, I will hire one, and "do errands" while they head to the farm. Then a hire a second to do the other farm.... and "do errands". Then I go to the first farm to make sure there is a worker, offer double hire and repeat at the second farm

..... kind of like getting into a flow of things.

Additionally, if I have the crop that is headed for a facility, and am in a hurry, I will harvest myself 4 times as fast, and plow myself. Only the plowing costs a little more - 5 coins for 600-1000 patches. No biggie
