Sims At Work - Tips for Sims 4

I see this a lot regarding Sims "At Work"; once our Sims character heads off to work (or school), we tend to just let it happen and take their promotions every three to four or five Sims days. But we can control that.  We already notice that while the Sims is away at work or school that their Bladder and Hunger needs are routinely attended to without adding to their stress levels.

But, if our Sims is struggling to meet Happy needs, there's an option while the Sims is at work that can help with that.  Or if the Sims is struggling to meet its Social needs, that too can be helped while at work. Or if you want your Sims to make it to the top of their career quicker, there's an At Work option for that, too.

The options only become available while the Sims is at work (or school).
At Work Avatar
When the Sims leaves for work (or school) their facial avatar (icon) will become faded, with a smaller icon that shows where they are, at work or school, and next to that icon is another icon of a male&female that, if you move your cursor over, will indicate "Work Normally."  This is the default At Work option,  Click on that icon for more At Work options.

For this example, I'm using only the At Work options. The At School options are similar -

  • Leave Early (No description).
  • Normal - Work as normal.
  • Socialize - Reduces work performance - increases Social.
  • Take Risks - Increases work performance - chance of Confident or Sad moodlets.
  • Work Hard - Increases work performance - reduces Fun with chance of Stress moodlet.
  • Take it Easy - Reduces work performance - increases Fun with chance of Happy moodlet.

These At Work options give some help in areas that the Sims might be struggling to meet while home or traveling.
