I'm new here so tell me if I've put this in the wrong place.

I have a problem with Farkas, one of the companions who's supposed to hand out radiant quests when you select "I'm looking for work" but for some reason that option never appears unless I take him on a job I'm running for Vilkas or Aela and obviously then he just hits me with the "Aren't you already running a job for Aela/Vilkas? Come talk to me when you finish that up!"

Does anyone know how I go about resolving this issue? Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated
