Can confirm it wasn't fixed on the current PC version, so I wouldn't expect it to be fixed on console either.
It's possible for my sim to get back to the same level she was at when I quit though, so I don't know if that works on console, but in that case you wouldn't lose any progress.
Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? German
How often does the bug occur? Every time since it first happened
What is your current game version number? 1.63.134.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Moschino.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim goes to work as normal, comes home at the correct time but it keeps saying she is at work: Sim's icon is greyed out, shows "at work" options on clicking, work performance increases to max (yellow checkbox appears), inventory not available. Also she doesn't get paid and clicking on her icon doesn't move the camera to her position.
What do you expect to see? Sim comes home and is actually home, gets paid, has inventory access, and not supposedly at work with no inventory etc.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? I had MCCC and More columns (both updated before playing) which I removed, made no difference. Also some CC (hair and clothes) but the sim isn't wearing any of it.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Appeared after getting Eco Lifestyle.
It first happened after getting promoted via random event that gives you fame and a promotion (or you decline and "continue life like normal") which got her to lvl 5 Entertainer - Musician (Jingle Jammer). First shift on that job and she got stuck.
I tried travelling to another lot, take a vacation day, went on an actual vacation in Selvadorada for a night, made a new sim/household and played with them for a bit (didn't get a job there though). Only thing that gets rid of it is quitting the job.
However I am now stuck on a random odd job which I cannot quit at all, even though it gives me the "Person was very disappointed." notification at the top right when I try to quit on phone or in job tab. 😃 Also can't get a new one cause I can't quit the current one. Also not sure if my rating went to 0 stars now that I tried to quit that thing "early" like 20 times...
I tried repairing the game but that did nothing (and I can't try to see if my Fizzer works in the apartment cause the no inventory access makes it impossible to try).
Also it's a completely new save, cause I didn't wanna try and open an old savegame and corrupt that possibly since idk if that's all fixed yet.
