[ARCHIVED] [VGSP] Butler changes after going to another lot

I've been playing Sims 4 since 2019 and the butlers have never worked properly for me - every time I load up the lot (either from starting the game or visiting another lot), I have to re-do all of the responsibilities, like answering the door, stopping gardening and the bed assignment, because the butler has reset; sometimes it's the same butler, but they've clearly been reset as I have to redo everything, or it's an entirely different butler. The old butler(s) then keeps calling me and trying to hang out like, we're not friends leave me alone lol

They also spend more time dusting desks, drinking my juice and scampering after me for a chat than actually doing what I pay them for! I've seen them do most housework tasks eventually, but I have never seen them autonomously put the laundry on, or put the clean, dry laundry away.

I'm pretty frustrated that this bug has been open since 2018 and it still hasn't been fixed! Happy to supply multiple different affected save files where I have had this issue if that would help! I use no mods or CC, and only have a handful of expansion packs. I do tend to have multiple played sims, but it happens even if I have only one family with a butler and I am pretty sure it happened before I started making other sims to play.
