For me, it's the handiness skill. I'm always hesitant to have my sims try doing repairs because they have low skill, so I usually have them call the repair service or simply replace the item. When I do let sims repair a sink or a toilet, it makes such a mess! I hate having to tell them to scavenge through the junk and then clean the mess up.It would sure be nice to have really handy sims who could do upgrades, but I never seem to get them too high with their handiness skill. (I know, I could use cheats, and maybe sometime I will.)Is there a skill that you don't like?

Herbalism because it's a pain in the

I think my least favorite is video-gaming. I use the video games to get fun up quickly, but I don't actively seek the skill out. I don't have any level 10 mischief-makers either. As to the handiness, I make every sim fix their own things. (lol I guess because I do irl!) And I have several herbalists in my game. I guess we all just play different so it's good there's a variety for everyone who plays!

Probably mischief. Once you've watched the various mischief interactions once or twice, they're not that entertaining and there aren't a lot of fun alternatives for raising it.

Photography is probably my least favourite skill to gain, although I like the concept. I just find it quite tedious having to take so many photos. I also agree that charisma is way too easy - my socially awkward sim shouldn't be gaining charisma through casual conversation with his roommate. I wish there was a way in CAS to restrict how much of a skill sims gain and/or make skills easier/harder.

What Skill Do You Like the Least?

Hmmm I’m also with herbalism mainly because I never use it since it is such a pain to do.

Mine is either Charisma or Mischief. They both seem excruciatingly long and slow to level up.

Mixology. Can't stand it & never have my Sims learn it.

Flower arranging skill. I just find it super boring and tedious.

Definitely mischief... just not a skill any of my sims ever really have a desire to pursue, and not one I have any natural curiosity about. Now that I've said that though, I should probably test it out more...
