Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.80.69.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All expansions, all game packs but DHD, all stuff packs and one kit, Oasis something kit.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have the ourdoorsy lifestyle and be employed with the Manual labour career. My sim was at Backhoe operator level (lvl 3). Go to work and observe the buffs while working.
What happens when the bug occurs? While at work,the sim will get a "Trapped inside" moodlet despite that the career clearly is supposed to be outdoorsy with related skills being gardening and the job description mentioning activities like lawn mowing.
What do you expect to see? Outdoorsy sims to not get "Trapped inside" buffs from an outdoorsy career.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I cannot tell if the buffs appear already at starting level of this career since the sim only gained the outdoorsy lifestyle when they were already at level 3. I've seen people report getting this buff for other activities that are performed outdoors too so probably this lifestyle needs to be checked anyway.

This is still very much happening.. 😞 This career is perfect for sims who want to mostly live off gardening and farming and it works great for them (in terms of scheduling and what personality I imagine them having) to easily make a little extra money by doing this job on the weekends. Sims like these tend to develop the Outdoorsy lifestyle (which is great and makes total sense) but then they hate this career that should actually be perfect for them.
By everything it says in the job description and all the work event popups it should clearly be an outdoorsy career and not an office job indoors.
- PipMenace2 years agoHero@siirysiir I was going to open a new bug report, but it looks like what I was going to report has previously been merged into this thread (#9).
The manual laborer is obviously an outdoor job - lawn mower, landscaper, backhoe operator - and yet my outdoorsy sims always instantly get the stressed from being cooped up indoors moodlet as soon as they leave for work. It's really frustrating.- xena3112 years agoRising Traveler
Yes I have that problem too. I requires Gardening skill, it's obviously an outdoor job

The notifications also show that my outdoorsy sim feels trapped indoors while working as a manual laborer. It should be indoorsy sims that feel uncomfortable working as a manual laborer.
