This Unemployment don't cut it for my Sims. I would love to have my sims employment listed as Self Employed as was in Sims 3. I know there is no court house to register a Sims Self Employment but they can use the computer to register.I'm not the kind of Simmer who play the available careers with all my sims and they are far from Unemployed when they are Painting into a million simolean income. Currently I'm playing a farming family who use the garden as their fortune with a custom built farm/home in play. I would like a Roadside Stand used for selling Art work or Food grown in the family gardens. I know you can build stores for that but that process is too long and takes away from the love of painting and gardening. A internet market for collectors or programmer skills.I need to see self employment in TS4. Self Employment FieldsPainter or Artist, Farmer or Gardener, Programmer, Author, CollectorStore Owner, Restaurant OwnerAre there other hobbies or skills that can be listed in the Self Employed category?Am I the only one who plays this way?

I would love that too. It makes no sense that a store owner is categorized as unemployed.

Yes I need this! I have an ambitious sim who owns and runs a very successful retail store but he is always tense from being unemployed :|

I haven't played with sims in the retail area just yet... reading this is surprising. How can you be an owner, but you're unemployed? If anything you're self-employed, not unemployed. Ahh -- enough of my pet peeves at the moment.I don't think you're the only one that plays this way. The only careers I liked for my sims were the ones that could work for themselves or worked where I could follow them to work.The Sims 4 is lacking in this area, but I wish it will be improved. I love to have and more so, to 'see' my sims working and earning a living, but it's so very limited at the moment.

Such excellent ideas :)It's bit rediculous that my hard working store owner/painter with a decent income is listed as unemployed....

**Please Add Self Employment to The Sims 4 **

I'd like to see them add "work from home" as an option. So, you'd be Self Employed and could sell your creations from your house. Have a small shop in the front of your lot, or live in the basement / second floor of a building where the first floor is all shops.

Please read.. yes you CAN own a store with Get to Work. But it's not considered a JOB of any sort. Since if you ONLY run a store-the game considers you UNEMPLOYED.
