Paranormal Gigs

My sim is supposed to be at work but I can't figure out what to do. She's a paranormal investigator with her first gig.

I sent the family on vacation thinking it would either cancel the gig or I could do the gig while on vacation.

Instead, it's saying she's supposed to be at work and I don't know where to send her. Do I just pick a lot for her to visit?

I searched online and could only find how to get the gigs and what to do once on the lot. I can't find anything that tells what lot to go to.
  • @PenguinFoop did you try clicking on the work icon (the briefcase)? You might have a "go to work" button there. Other than that I don't know what to tell you; it's been quite some time since I did paranormal but I think my sim just automatically went to the gig lot.

    You could also try ending the vacation early & going home?
  • Yeah I checked. There is no "go to work" option. And I get the feeling that she was supposed to automatically go to the lot but since I sent the family on vacation, it caused an unforseen scenario that the devs might not have considered.

    When I played with it last, there's an automatic pop-up when it's time for the gig to start, like with the Get to Work active careers. I'm not sure of a work around if the pop-up doesn't trigger. You might need to take the L on that gig and try again when the family's vacation ends. :c
  • Yeah, that's what I did. Lessons learned and all that. I wonder if the same would happen if I sent my other sim on an audition.

    Can you send that one sim home and see if you can go to work from there?
  • Sorry for the late response. I ended up cancelling the gig instead. The family isn't hurting for money and vacation doesn't come often for me. I'm a bit of a tyrant with my sims.
