Overtime & After Hours Work

My sim doesn't seem to do any overtime when I've pressed "work overtime". Also when I've sent said sim to work after ours she hasn't gotten paid for it or had an increase in performance.

Am I missing something or is it a glitch? Surely I should be gaining something if not what's the point?

  • My Sim works as a conservationist (level 7 now but he started off at a level 3 after completing Uni) and he can work during his "off" time when he's not at work or on a day that he's not scheduled. It doesn't give any extra pay but I think that it does give a little bit extra performance.

    Will the overtime after hours work for the Scientist career?

    Unfortunately no it’s just for the new career I heard.

    My Sim acquired the Workaholic lifestyle and she doesn't get paid for working extra hours either. I'm assuming this is a bug.
  • I was initially inclined to think it a joke on the work attitudes; but there are no tool tips on the work tones, except the Work Hard and one more, forgot which one, but not new for the pack.
    It could perhaps be an oversight.

    Here is how to make a bug report:
