Freelancer Career broken with today's patch

The entire career?

I just tried the art and writing. Shows job is completed but doesn't clear, even after time has expired on the gig. Bummer. Love the freelance career.

You are right, I am seeing posts on Answer HQ about it. I expect Crinrict will open up the thread about it, it is closed currently.

Oh come on!!!! The guy I’m playing now is a Freelancer. I’m losing hope here

One of my rotational families is two roommate freelancers. Guess I won’t be checking in on them ?

I have a freelance photographer :(

Great.... My sim is a freelance writer.

This seems to be the new post about it. It is currently asking for input so please share what is happening and click "me too" so that Maxis will know.

I have not updated the game myself (and I will probably not do it for a while...), but I seem to recall that modders were able to make a fix for this bug when we got it last time, if this is the same bug that has returned.

Aww that's a shame. I enjoy the freelance career!

Might just have to stick with painting in the mean time without the freelance.

Yep, same issue here. All the tasks are complete and checked off in the career menu, but the gig never pays out and remains active even after its deadline has passed.

I've got the same issue and clicked "me too" in the bug reports.
Hopefully we don't have to wait until the next patch but get a quick fix for this or a modder can fix it.
