They changed this in the may 30th patch

I play with Lifestyles off because it caused too many negative moodlets, just like Wants and Fears. It's such a shame because I like the ideas in theory but it's all those little blue moodlets that spoil the game for me.
But, there's no escaping Burnout! My Ambitious Sims can't Work Hard once without it making them Dazed. It needs attention desperately. I'm having to select Work Hard for about half the work day and then quickly switch it to Socialize with Co-workers (which would be a sackable offence IRL and I know that because I was a Personnel Officer). It's taking much longer to get promoted trying to avoid it. So it's also conflicting with the Ambitious trait.
I think Burnout should either have a Reward Points remedy (because Moodlet Solvers don't always help), be toggled on/off, or only occur after say 3 days of working hard. The same applies to my Sim children who study hard in school.
It's not too realistic either unfortunately. I had a few really stressful times in my government career, especially meeting government or EU deadlines or handling staffing, payroll or budget. I was never once Dazed, just needed to relax at home when I finally got there.
The Dazed look may or may not have put in an appearance after an office night out, cough 🤫.
Edit: I forgot to mention I'm also getting burnout while Sims are painting.

I keep getting dazed when my Sim is working on the Vet Station making Treats. It never used to do this until Growing Together.
Kind regards James.
