Principal Calls but Nothing Happens

If its the call you get from the principal or boss from being late for school/work, I'm pretty sure when the game came out what happened was that after pressing 'ok' an action queued up where they would talk to the principal/boss on the phone, the some pop-up or notification about they would lose school/work performance or not to do it again or something? Like I remember my earliest sims getting these calls and being able to answer them, but now my sims get the calls but clicking 'ok' results in nothing happening.
