career_base exceptions every load-in

every time i load into this save or onto a new lot, i get the same better exceptions pop-up about "career_base" error. and even with mods removed, the same last exception happens (attachment is from when mods were removed).

i went to the mc command center discord for support and tried everything they suggested and more: repairing the game, killing and then reviving all the sims i've put in university (this was the main suggestion so i've done this like 5 times), dropping out of university, putting old university mods back in the game... still always getting that career_base error.

i don't know exactly what problems it causes, but it's still really annoying to constantly have last exceptions that i cannot get rid of.

is it possible to get rid of this? can i somehow edit whatever files the last exception is mentioning?? this is driving me nuts
