My Sim's Butler *served* TV dinners for dinner...

(I really hope I'm posting this in the right place, and I'll try not to have an emotional breakdown if this gets moved to Retardo Land  ;) )

Here is a screenshot of the butler serving out the TV dinners (which, he mannaged to burn, by the way):

How the heck did he mannaged to *serve* something that can only be made as a single plate anyway?

I think I have to fire the guy, unless there is some way to "fix" him.  I have had good expirences with buttlers in a couple other households, but I'm pretty sure this is a different butler.  He's so freaking sloppy, he complains and looks at me everytime he actually goes to clean something.   ::)

Maybe I can use boolprop to make him selectable and then drag his neatness and cooking skill to the top.  Never done that before (but it would probably be helpful for nannies as well).

My sim's butler did this too.  I thought it was pretty funny actually.

I've experienced this as well. It seems that all of the butlers have low cooking skill points. The nanny serves better dishes! I've gotten lobster thermodor out of her.

I don't know how to increase his points, but it would be great if we could.

ETA: I tried tipping the butler and it worked. He had served cereal and then, after tipping $100, he served omelets.

Gastfyr:
In another household, the butler only serves omlettes for breakfast and lobster for dinner, so they can't all have low cooking skill, but they should all have it maxed by default in my oppinion.  I'd have to have to tip the freaking guy; he's expensive enough as it is.  But when he does his job properly, he can be very useful to active sims with little to no cookins skill so they're not spending all ther time trying to fill up on hot dogs, lucnchmeat sandwiches, and cereal.  lol  Also, he's a pretty handy gardener who comes every day, so he can take care of the seasons fruit and veggies (something the regular gardener can't do without hacks).

I've never do this myself, but supposedly you can do it with boolprop testingcheatsenabled true.  Enther that code in the cheat command box in neighbourhood screen, then enter the lot.  Shift+click on the butler and choose, "make selectable".  Then go to his personality and skills tabs and just click and drag to pull the points up (or down) however you like them.  Can also have him go to a mirror and "change appearance" if you like.  Then, when you're done editing him, shift+click him and choose "make unselectable".  Open cheat command box (cntrl+shift+c) and type in "boolprop testingcheatsenabled false" then save your game and exit the lot (for some reason boolprop testingcheatsenabled doesn't get turned off properly most of the time for me unless I actaully exit the lot and come back in; not sure why lol).

It should work, and then I'll have an ubber-butler.   ;D  Ima gonna try it.

Most of us here play with the testing cheats on all the time, and don't even bother ever turning them off.
