My mayor just held a meeting about job scarcity with my engineer, who was unhappy with the lack of work. Then an announcement appeared telling me that my mayor had taken a request from the miners guild. My engineer has no mining skill, does not have mining enabled and (to my knowledge) has never touched a pick in his life. Also, there are no new mandates (which AFAIK there should be for guild requests).

My mayor is a miner, if that is at all relevant.

Maybe it's the mayor complaining about the lack of mining job.  I think the complaint might be link to older complaints (someone else complained about lack of mining job a while ago, maybe even the mayor himself).

Possibly, but a large tunnel was recently dug out, so there has been plenty of mining going on. Plus, the announcement appeared exactly the same time as when the meeting with the engineer ended.

I can't for the life of me remember where, but I have a vague recollection of reading somewhere that there is a bug where every complaint about a lack of work refers to the miners guild, regardless of what the actual lack of work is.  I wish I could find the reference, but it is eluding me.

The guild mentions themselves are a holdover from that gutted system, but I'm not sure why it would reference the miner's guild.  I can't find anything obvious in the code that records the guild inside the complaint, so I'll probably need to recreate the situation to figure it out.
