[OPEN] Stuck in Shadow: Promoted to Dev Captain doesn't complete if higher

So I'm doing this "Stuck in the Shadow scenario. I somehow manage to get to the top of the Tech Guru career, and now I can not complete: Get Promoted to Development Captain because I'm so far beyond that I can't even get to Development Captain. Even getting demoted at this point will only put me down to The Next Big Thing? (I used cheats to see if I could get demoted enough, but didn't use mods or cheats before this). It's pretty annoying considering it took forever for the mysterious phone call to trigger so I could continue the story. If it had happened in a reasonable amount of time I may have actually been in a low enough career level so that I could get Development Captain when it came up. 

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? It only occurred the one time, I could probably avoid the bug by not getting up job levels so fast, but how would anyone know their first time through?
What is your current game version number? 1.98.158.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Luxury Party Stuff, Jungle Adventure, Holiday Celebration Pack, Get to Work, Fashion Street Kit, Cats & Dogs, Life of the Party, Up All Night
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just get to job level 7 or higher in the Tech Guru job path, before getting Get Promoted to Development Captain as an option.
What happens when the bug occurs? You can't complete "Stuck in the Shadow" scenario. 
What do you expect to see? It already checked off since I've already gotten and surpassed the expectation
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Nope
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No, it's all related to the Stuck in the Shadow Scenario. The game itself is working as it should.
