Discussions about Hiring and Hiring Practices

[rosechristine]

I would like to see something indicating what tools a person has as well... I like to go and hire from the market. I have met some really nice people and they are now FT friends and we chat and get to know one another a little over time. Sometimes it is just I have things to do in real life and my farm has work that needs doing and none of my friends/buddies/neighbors are available.

Going and hiring from marketplace and not knowing what tools they have and multi-farm hiring is a huge risk. If they only have one tool they aren't likely going to do the other work and I freely admit my trees are set up that some you really can't harvest without a tool. If I see someone without a tool I can hire them for ONE FARM and look for another person or persons for the other farms. Let's face it, if someone has a boat they will likely fish my Big Seas while they are on the farm harvesting coconuts and bananas if they only have the fishing pole odds are against that.

Just a thought.
