Mine was a self-employed sculpter. I ended up fixing it by saving a copy of the sim to the bin in CAS, then created a new sim using the premade. Of course, he was unemployed once I re-imported him into the game but I had no idea that was the cause.
Could the missing link be that we all "moved" to Isla Paradiso using EA's new method in addition to the self-employed thing?
Doubtful, since I think a lot of the people who have seen the bug in action (myself included) were testing with brand new Sims created in IP, not moved from another town.
@crinrict - I tested a little bit on this again last night, and you may be right about it breaking after playing for awhile. Here's the really odd thing, though. My self employed writer could NOT check in without causing the game to freeze... until he got promoted. After the promotion, he hasn't had any trouble checking in. I don't know if the promotion actually fixed it or if it was just playing the Sim for awhile that fixed it.
Later today I'll play the Sim up to promotion again and see if the error returns or if it stays the same.
