More than one sim in Professions
Do you have more than one sim in professions like a doctor or an actor? Or even sims with a retail store or a restaurant? if so how do you balance which sim goes to work alone or which one you go with...

I have an actor couple and two police couples.
For the actors I take care to keep Amber more famous than Jerry, but since we apply for gigs manually this is easy. Jerry's agency keeps complaining he should apply for gigs, but there doesn't seem to be a negative effect from not doing so. So far they haven't fired him.
Often Amber and Jerry do performances together in public, so they sort of are in the same movie after all (especially if I stream/film those performances).
The police couples are a little more difficult, because the game sometimes refused to send the remaining sim to work after I had agreed to accompany the first. But that hasn't happened for months now (fall last year, maybe).
Couple 1 I try to keep Gavin higher in the career than Tina, but at some time I'm going to lock them at their tier and then it won't matter anymore which one I actively play.
Couple 2 is interesting because Oumaima is the game-generated Chief of Police. I married her and moved her in and now all my police sims still get her as the Chief EXCEPT of course when I play herself or her husband.
I have two households filled with police co-workers and they reliably show up for my played police sims. Since this is consistent I do not mind that Hank/Oumaima and Gavin/Tina do not work together.
