Problems with fire station

The firefighting career has been glitched right from the start, and they never fixed it. It's nearly impossible at the lower levels to get to the small fires, because they will be canceled by the time your sim gets to the fire truck. Someone else posted in the last week or two that they bulldozed and replaced the fire station, and it worked fine for them after that. You did that, but you should have put the fire station back the way it was.

I don't know if it was replacing the fire station that fixed things for the other player. It could have been just that their sim was higher in the career by then. The bigger fires that come with a higher level don't glitch like the small fires. Someone said in the past that the small fires drop because the residents of the house put it out themselves. Maybe that's correct, and it was actually designed to be that way. If it was, I think it was a bad idea.

Maybe someone else can give you some suggestions on dealing with the situation. It's been a long time since I played a firefighter, because as glitchy as it was, I felt that once was enough. Until someone can make some better suggestions, there are other things sims can do to increase their job performance and advance in the firefighter career. You might need to have them do those things a lot until they get to a high enough level to get the bigger fires.
