[HR] Ranch Hand Stays Past 7 pm

I hired a ranch hand and they never leave. It would be less annoying if I was able to lock the house doors for ranch hands. They stay on the lot until 3-4am, dance, eat from the fridge, etc. Often a second ranch hand shows up in the morning and they are both there. I tried to fire one, but they both were fired. This has been happening for months. I'm not sure if this makes a difference, but I hired them with the 'free services' reward.

    My ranch hand is buggy, too. He stays way past 7pm, breaks items that have been upgraded to be unbreakable, can't remember chore directions (I have to uncheck 'repairs' daily or he goes around breaking everything), and spends most of his time dancing, painting, drinking water continuously or playing instruments.  My mini sheep threaten to leave unless my Sims undertake their care, negating the point of a ranch hand. He does pet my chickens, though, I'll give him that 😅

    I also got my ranch hand thru the free services perk.

    as in: he leaves the entire area covered in chickenfeed? because thats the case for me lol. my ranch hand just died repairing something and now i have two ranch hands. i saw someone else having the duplication happen and now im worried ill soon have the whole town as my ranch hands dying in droves on my lot... is it fixable? because at that point i might as well see how far i can take this bug... can i get the whole town involved?
