Hard Worker

[]

This may seem silly now, but I always tried to get the hard-worker trait into my staff members. It wasn't until I tried to CREATE my own workers, that I saw this trait was grouped into the NEGATIVE category.

I don't know, maybe the name could have been done better, or something else with the mechanics.

I have not checked into the actual stats yet, but I am guessing the staff member will degrade performance from not having a break? But this seems counter-intuitive since almost every business I know that runs in the capitalistic world would be delighted if they legally could hire workers that didn't take work-breaks. lol

Yep, your hard worker will take no break and drain all stats to rock bottom till shift ends, which is kinda fine for 1 man reception lol, but for the rest you figured that result already, not sure if having regen props in their work room helps but I just avoid them like the alcoholics/long commune

I wonder if the 'bad perks' are what's part of the reason why some doctors just idle half the day while the patient claims they are leaving to another hospital because they are tired of waiting around all day for the very same doctor.

I didn't see anything too obvious, but I'll be watching more closely. Always assumed this had to be a bug. Maybe it is...

Not really, even if you spend time and money (and with mods) recruiting people with only good traits or no traits, you will still see doctors idling or stuck for reasons we cannot see or understand.

hardworker is the best "negative" trait, they will still fill up their needs which gives them some rest back

I believe that the slow-learner is superior. Because, they still learn. Not just that, can't you speed them up anyway by sending them off to study? Think about it. If you have those guys for a while, they will still level up, but have no negative perk!
