i actually had the fyre household go to the seafood restaurant i'd placed in windenberg in the short time i played yesterday (original plan was to place it in brindleton bay, but it was too big for any of the waterside lots, alas. and i didn't want to try to rebuild it smaller. was a very, very amazing pre-pets gallery find that i added brindleton sea-related decor to, as well as all the fish-themed foods in the game) and had what appeared to be a 'runner' instance with one of the waitresses...
but, it turned out that it was actually one of the patrons that had gone for a jog after being seated and the waitress was chasing him down the street trying to place his order. which really made me laugh...
my sensational sixam restaurant was originally on the 40x20 lot in newcrest and 3/4 of the outside was pools. most of the time, at least one waiter or waitress would decide they needed to go swimming instead of doing their job. which was extremely frustrating, to say the least. lot has since been moved to magnolia promenade, which is now an alien world district (alien themed restaurant, vet office, and retail lot all owned by the same family, and an alien nightclub that is the meeting place for my interstellar smugglers) and has much less water around to avoid that
@kalaksed That cracks me up! I had the same swimming waitresses (and patrons & owners as well) issue when I renovated the big penthouse in San Myshuno and made it a restaurant. I called the restaurant "The Penthouse", and it's downloadable in my gallery, but it would probably be more fun to install and
visit in your game than to own. It's a bit of a handful to run, but less so after revisions and troubleshooting... but if you own and run it, be very conscious of which doors you lock or not. In the end I made it so you could go to the basketball, gaming, 'espresso-bar', dancing and swimming areas without being customers to help reduce chaos. Hahaha... the customers definitely have fun with it, though! It is fun to own so you can control the door locks and all as long as you are wealthy enough to purchase it and don't need to really profit much if at all from it. Fun to try... then if you are tired of running it it can be left as a fun lot to have available for your sims to dine or recreate at. :)
