It seems like for the first gig there is only one option available. Does that change if you wait a day or is there any way to get around it? If it is on a lot I purposely don't want to change is there any way to avoid it? The Guru's said that you should just avoid lots you don't want to change but for the first gig it seems impossible.

The number of gigs might vary based on time of day, I haven't really checked, but know this is the case with the freelance jobs. Gigs are also based on Professional Reputation and your career level. Packs you own could effect it too (for number of available homes and venue/celebrity type gigs etc).

If the only gigs available are ones you don't want you have 2 options:

Don't take any gig and try again the next day.

Take a gig, but send the sim to work alone. Gigs always start at 9 am the next day. The sim disappears into a rabbithole for the gig. This doesn't change the gig lot and your success is likely random based on various factors. This option also allows you to concentrate on other sims in the household while still (potentially) earning money from gigs.
