@Trismagistos Ah I see. So the option to work on off hours doesn't appear automatically as soon as a Sim obtains the lifestyle, it only appears if the Sim does certain tasks (different once depending on the job) aside from work, which are different depending on the job, did I understand that correctly? I will try that.Thanks.

@Naodyr the option you mention, to work off hours, will only appear when your Sim is a salaryman. In other cases just do some work related tasks. I think you explained it perfect.

Have fun playing. 😉

  Yeah, what @breannanotestine said, my Sims were concert musicians and conservationists and they could go to work on their off hours. I would just click them and it was an option.
  They would also do it autonomously if I wasn't watching them like a hawk, which was super annoying when I had other things I wanted them to do.

@Trismagistos My sim is in the Author career with the Workaholic Lifestyle and he does have the option to Go to Work on Off Hours. Sometimes he goes autonomously, but that time at work does not raise his Performance level, and he has no option to Demand a Promotion. Basically, the negative aspects of this Lifestyle work fine for him, but the positive ones do not work.
