No Offer Cheap: Don't Give Away My Store!
TheCheat:
No one has experienced the problem I mentioned above?
Thraxwhirl:
No, I confess I haven't had that problem.
I have other bugs - for example everytime I attempt to Make Toys or Robots it completely freezes the game - but I don't have the bug you mentioned, TheCheat.

Yes I have issues with the employee sales people too. The AI could be a little bit better for it. Like if they try to sell to someone and the customer has a negative reaction maybe they should not try to sell to them again right away. DUH
The AI could be a lot better, yes. The odds of negative reaction are somewhat wonky at best, though, since customers often show up REAAAAALLY surly, and just get along really badly with your sims, often for no perceptible reason. I suspect it's a unidirectional chemistry issue: Townies often exhibit sim-to-sim chemistry that will not manifest on your sim panel at all because townies are designed to always be "available", so their gender preferences do not affect whether or not they receive chemistry boosts. Of course, if your sim is NOT romantically inclined towards the townie's gender, they will not show bolts or X-bolts, and receive no adjustment, whereas the townie will. Wonky stuff, really.
As for the interaction choices, well, let's just say the interactional choices are nearly uniformly bad, since they choose far too many non-Dazzle actions, and Dazzle is the only action that will actually sell anything most of the time!
Business Runs You! will push the AutoSoc Sales routines onto your gold-badge salespeople instead, likely suppressing their urge to sell in stupid ways.

But doesn't that drastically lower their needs and put them in a crappy mood, or does your strategy of being best friends with them keep them from bailing regardless of how low their motives get from the Dazzles?

As someone who used to work in retail, I think this sounds just like real life! :D
