@Eryyk5551Does your sims have the lazy trait? That might be why.

I’ve found that if I’m doing something else when my Sims go to work (like having my kids at a club gathering), the Sim will come home with a fear of a dead end job, even if they got promoted! Okay, the two might not be related, but why are you coming home promoted and tense about your “dead end job”?
You keep using the term “dead end job.” I don’t think it means what you think it means!
I’m not changing their jobs. They have the jobs I want them to have.

I have always thought that playing sims was so you could create what you want your story to be, your person, your family, your job, and so forth. I feel like I am playing what someone else wants me to play. I tried to turn off the wants and fears but they are still there. What do I need to do? I play console.

@Wsherrym Do they reappear after traveling? There's a bug report for that. It looks like general "wants and fears not turning off" reports are there, too, but...

I know this wasn't directed toward me but I experience this issue as well. Even with an ambitious trait, it seems to do this for me too. I'll even try to pick careers based on their likes and they seem to absolutely hate it with a burning passion. Especially when they are Elders but the moment they retire they get all cranky about not having a job.

My Sim also hates his Job calls it dead end and refuses to build his skills. He's Ambitious Romantic Bro and even has professional slacker.
- simsplayer8183 years agoHero@x48vyj8hh2g4 if you haven't already tried it you can toggle off wants and fears in Game Options. You can always get them back later but it will help. I've just had to do this myself as my Sim was so miserable despite having the skills, aspiration and love of all things sporty...she came home sobbing daily from her job as an athlete. I toggled off wants and fears and she was fine after that, like a little ray of sunshine instead lol and happy in her work!
