Work from Home for Engineering

@8c7cd93d28862768   Yes.  I was curious if you demote the sim below level 7 and then let them rejoin the career, if you would then get the task "guest speak" instead of "crash course".  Like I said previously, I have no idea if this will work for you.  I just thought it might be worth a try.  Again, note that demoting them from level 7 means they'll be fired and you'll have to wait three in-game days before they can rejoin the career, though they will rejoin at level 7.  I suggest first going into game options and do a "save as" to create a copy of your save in it's current state.  This way, you will not lose any progress if it doesn't work and can go back to where you left off.  Maybe name the new save something like "Engineering cheat test" so that you can differentiate between the saves.  If it does work, you can always go back to the main menu and rename the saves as you wish.

As for that other thread, it looks like it was intended to capture all of the problems with the Engineering work from home tasks.  I agree with you that your problem is different than tasks like "practice programming" not completing.  However, it's possible the moderators believed all the issues are related and wanted to keep them all together in one thread.
