Butlers will sleep in a Sim's house, so make sure that they have a spare bed! To assign a bed for the butler, click on the desired bed and set it as the butler's bed. The butler has level 10 in both Cooking and Handiness,<ref name="jforum list">http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/75/278851.page</ref> though [[Camilla Fortescue]], one of the pre-made butlers in [[Bridgeport]], does not follow this rule, having a different range of skills. A good relationship must be kept with the butler or they may leave. There are some known glitches with the butler. When arriving at a house, the car they have arrived in often becomes stuck outside the front of the house even when the game is reloaded. At times, they may become invisible, though this is temporary. Butlers must be paid every week. |

*In ''The Sims 3: Late Night'' expansion pack, a common problem is that, if the butler makes food, the entire household and guests will stop their current actions to eat—and butlers may cook autonomously. If there is a small kitchen area and a large family or many guests the area will become crammed. This is why it is a good idea to have parties in between breakfast and lunch, lunch and dinner, or dinner and breakfast. Another alternative is to make the kitchen quarters larger. This issue, however, was partially fixed later on with a patch that removed the Butler's ability to cook autonomously. |

*Butlers also sometimes end up in a different Sim's apartment and will be stuck there. Sadly there seems to be no way to fix the bug normally other than moving to another world.{{clarify}} |
