Grave Digger, but can't go to work.

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Steam-PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.110.311.1020 DX9
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Life and Death, Cottage Living, Holiday Celebration, Realm of Magic, Vampires, My First Pet, Romantic Garden, Goth Galore, and Castle Estate
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Starting the Grave Digger career and attempting to go to work.
What happens when the bug occurs? It's only happened once because it was supposed to be my Sim's first day. I started the career, woke my sim up an hour before work, had her stand around so she'd be ready to go when the time came, and then she didn't move. The popup offering to have the camera follow her popped up and I hit yes, but still nothing. I then tried hitting the button to tell her to go to work and it tells me she's already at work and asking if I want to have her play hooky and leave early.
What do you expect to see? My sim going to work and the camera switching to her at her job, like with the grim reaper career.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

‌

I didn't have this issue with the grim reaper career path at all.

    @PrincessKaoru The undertaker career is a rabbithole career, you can't join her. There is a bit of an issue with them not disappearing properly although that mostly happens in front of the house.

    If you click no on the message, does can you interact with her again when she's supposed to be home and does it count as work day ?

    I figured it out!!! I've noticed that since my house is 3 floors tall, when my sim is on the ground floor, she won't interact with anything on the third floor. She has teleportation as default travel, but I guess that's too far? So, on that same vein of though, going to work means she has to teleport from her coffin (vampire) on the third floor to go to the first floor. I woke her up an hour before work, made her go down to the first floor, then she went to work finally. The distance was the problem all along, not the career.

    @PrincessKaoru So she travels fine to the first floor when you just give her the command to go there but not if she goes to work ?

    Correct. She'll go to work, but only if I tell her to go to the ground floor first. Otherwise, it doesn't prompt her to go to work at all. So, there's still an issue with the game, just not with the DLC specifically.

    @PrincessKaoru Could you try moving her to another multi floor building for testing purposes and see if it's something about the house or a general issue ?
