What does a Ranch hand do?

That is so funny that you said that because I just rage-built a pen for both the grill and the trash can for the exact same reason. I'm hopeful that it will be effective!

Hahahahaha :D :D :D I am loving how you say rage-built, that is exactly how I felt when I build a fence around my bin that was constantly being kicked over by every sim that ever walked passed my sim's house :D :D :D never had a word for my feeling then, but rage-build is perfect ;)

Gonna have to try firing and rehiring because all mine does is dance to the stereo all day - if they even decide to show up!

However, all the townies in the world are coming over night and day and filling up my back porch with de-stressing potion from the grill - I think I have about 32 last count in my refrigerator - it's annoying but we do use the grill quite a bit so I can't put it away. These sims are obsessed with the thing!

Or you could remove the stereo. I had to remove my bar, back in Sims3, I think it was, because the Nanny was prone to tippling. :open_mouth:

I had a female ranch hand, and she was great. But then she started showing up at the door after-hours to play on the computer. Then she quit coming to work. I decided to try LittleMsSam's Live in Services mod. So far, it's working great. Fingers crossed! ?

Julian Laws showed up when hired. I took him into CAS and gave him new outfits, but he wears his ranch hand "uniform" for work. I also gave him different traits suitable for the job: Rancher, Loves Horses, and Animal Enthusiast. He already had good skills. After his 8-hr shift, he mostly reads and hangs out with the animals, but my sims socialize with him too.

Julian doesn't use a household slot. He takes care of his own needs. But I did lock is fun and social needs, assuming he enjoys his work with the animals and socializes with them. ?

He cleans up, tends the garden, and looks after the animals.

I always like to have my live-in workers eat with us.

Julian sleeps in the bunkroom I set up just off the nectar cellar.

Patchy also helps around the farm in addition to keeping an eye on the garden.

My ranch hand repaired the toilet without being asked. I had directed my sim to repair it, but he said he couldn't. Then Julian showed. Ah hah!

"I've got this, boss." ?
