Business Controller: Business Runs YOU!
jolrei:
This sounds like normal "business-be farmer" activity on a lot where there are no plants that currently need tending. Make sure you do not have a "perfect plants" or "perfect gardens" hack installed. If all your plants are perfect all the time, there is no need to garden, and no farming or gardening can be done. Your sims will continue to pace up and down with no purpose. (You can actually give them something else to do while they wait for plants to grow, without dropping the "be farmer" thing from the queue.)
cococure:
I don't have any hacks like that in my game. I waited a while, and employees still wandered aimlessly when there were plants which needed tending before they arrived, and when plants grew weeds while they were on the lot.
Lion:
I seached "server" and "clean" and nothing came up, so I assume nobody raised this issue.
So in a restaurant (home) business, the employee assigned as a server does not clean up plates after the customers are done. I observed for a long period of time; he would rather idle in the kitchen or go to clean the toilets than cleaning up the plates. When I assign my owner/family member to be a server, they clean up plates when there is no other urgent tasks. On the plus side, I'm happy to see the employee runs to greet customers (as the podium guy) in between serving. Is it because I assigned him to be the host for a few times and he remembered that skill?
I use the latest BRY, 09-1-2.
J. M. Pescado:
No, I think it's actually an EAxis bug that prevents non-fambly members from cleaning up plates, because apparently, people complained that they used to do this constantly on community lots, so now they can't. It's not BRY-related.
rufio:
Would it be possible to make cashiering more attractive to sims with the appropriate badges when there are customers waiting to be rung up? I don't know if you changed something recently, but now it seems that employees will not cashier even if they have gold register badges unless they are explicitly told to. My playable will cashier, but she seems to think it is more important to restock all of the shelves than to ring up customers before they throw down their bags and leave.
Also, when I wrote this:

Employees assigned to work as baristas do not seem to be treated the same way as other employees by BRY - they are not made to use the bathroom, eat, caffeinate, kick stuff, etc. when their needs are low, and, in addition to what they are actually being paid by their employers, they receive $16 every 5 sim minutes or so from a mysterious barista-paying entity which IIRC has been around since it became possible to work as a barista on non-owned community lots in nightlife. Can this be fixed?
I in fact meant bar tenders not baristas. (I know, I r smrt linguist.) Also, under more detailed scrutiny, I notice that the $16 is actually going to the business owner, not the bar tender - major DNW. On a slightly related note, I dismissed said bar tender for several consecutive days, and then deleted the bar. A few days later I called him back in and attempted to reassign him with the hammer and sickle - the pie menu on the H&S remained unchanged (with no options greyed out) and the business info continued to list the employee as the bar tender. Is this BRY related, or did I break it by deleting the bar?
