I think it's especially important with fishing cuz you can't tell. And if I have to keep double checking and rehiring...well I could do it faste myself and I don't have tools!

If I am hired for multiple farms no matter what the job is I am going to say thank you on the first farm and that is it. I am not going to go hunting for the farmer when I get done just to say thank you again. You can always look at your water to see if it got done. No matter what you hire someone do you have to check behind them to see if they got it all.

I usually leave a note so they know I did what I was hired to do.

If I hire someone to do a farm for me, I do just that, hire them to do the farm. Crops, trees, anything. Why would I want to get someone different to plow?
If they do a good job and FINISH the work, I add them to my buddy list for future opportunities.

Ok so what I am doing wrong? I hire people to work on my farms and I clicked Mulitiple hire, etc. then click on all farms and they only do the first and leave. I am wondering if they just don't know to go to the next farm or it's not showing as available to work on. I thought maybe the first time this happened, they just didn't feel like doing anymore, but it happens all the time now. Any suggestions???

I think it is more that they don't know or understand. The hire for multiple farms has not been out that long and many don't know about or come to the forums to get the information about new things.

Thanks! I was pretty much thinking the same thing. I guess I need to say I have 10 farms when in the market to hire!!

Or explain to them when you get them to the farm about it.

This just made my day
I just hired someone to fish for me.
When we came to my farm she went to it.. or we both thought so...
Suddenly she yelled, "You´re lying, it´s not working, I´m not able to do it!!"
I was, "YES, there are fish. Try again". She apologized... she was using the axe, not the fishing rod!!

tell her that you will use the ax, ..... after she catches them.

Fish heads make pretty decent fertilizer in some flower beds
