@beyzahostan HSY changed the career panel and added a new feature that allows you to turn off the follow to school popups for teens. It continues to be there after teens age up and it does appear to affect the GTW careers. I tested with a Scientist and if Enable Follow Messages is off, you will not get the popups to follow a sim to work. It has to be set to On for you to get them. See the attached pic.So, take a look at your sim's career panels to see if it is set to On or Off. In my game, the default setting appears to be On, and I have to turn it Off so I don't get the popups. Have you turned it off by chance?Hope this helps

@CGrant56 thank you for the effort... No, I intentionally turned it on but I still can't follow my sim to work

@beyzahostan How many days have you played ? The first one is sometimes just rabbithole depending on the time you start with the career.DId you repair your game ?

@crinrict It has been a couple of days, actually and I am still not able to follow my sim. Thank you for replying!

@beyzahostan To be sure, your Sim is in either the detective, the science or the doctor career ?

@beyzahostan Could you test a fresh save to see if it's related to the save game or a general issue ?

@crinrict I think it's a general issue. I bought and downloaded High School Years and realised I can't follow my sim to school.
