In my current game, I've got a Trainee Builder that dislikes wood and runs away every time she comes near the wood pile.

I've got a Trainee Farmer that dislikes turnips and runs away every time you take her near the veggies.

I've also got a child that never moved quickly because she dislikes running. You'll see her barely moving and her screen says she's "playing tag" although the other children already played and finished 10 minutes ago! She did make a good scientist and mother when she grew up though. You could stick her at the research table and she certainly wouldn't wander off!

I had a farmer who hated fish. He would harvest the veggies and get coconuts. But whenever he was delivering the food to the food bin, and someone else was delivering fish, he would run away.

LOL OMG thats funny!

I also had a farmer (woman) who hated fish. She kept running away every now and then and was very annoying, because she never had time for learning and gaining skills. I didn't force her to go fishing, but as you say, Amee, just the sight of fish made her run away in panic The only time she didn't run away from the sight of fish was when she was nursing a child - guess what she was destined to do....
