So I'm seeing the part-time jobs that are now available for adults, and I'm a bit confused on a couple things...So apparently you can choose which hours you would like to work in said part-time job, and can keep more than one part-time job..? So to clarify, I can work as many part-time jobs as I like? Can I keep having a part-time job while also getting a full career at the same time? Also, are all part-time jobs for adults available to choose the hours, because for me I see some jobs don't have hourly options available while some do. What about teens? Do they have access to these same options as well?

It is possible to have 2 part time jobs as along as the times do not overlap. No sure in the others.

Just watched a video of Deli and TheSimSupply reviewing the patch and it appears that you can only have two part-time jobs.

I failed to get my sim who has a full-time job a part-time job. Teens can have only one part-time job.

I've played around with it a little bit, If you have a full-time job you cannot have a part time job, however you can have two part-time jobs at once.I was hoping I'd be able to have a part time job as well as being in the actor career or being a freelancer, but i'm just happy I can finally have adullts who only have a part-time job.

I wish adults could have a part-time job in addition to their full-time jobs, as long as the hours didn't overlap. I was a little disappointed when I found out they can't :joy:

I think the 'problem' with full-time careers is that their hours can change when your sim gets promoted or has to choose a branch. So what should the game do if hours start overlapping? Automatically quit the part time job? But it would still be nice if we could combine them.

Yes, not all of them let you pick your shift. The Barista one and the Manual Laborer ones don't, while Retail, Babysitting, and Fast Food let you choose.

Only some part-time jobs have the option to choose the hours. It also seems like you can only have 2 part-time jobs if you pick the morning shift for one and the evening shift for the other, regardless of when the actual hours are. I love that they added this but hope they keep improving it. I definitely want to see the freelancer career become something you can do with any other job.

I also noticed this. Not all options are possible to combine, even if the hours don't overlap. The first thing I tried was babysitting and manual laborer so my sim would be busy every day. But despite never having overlapping hours, it won't work.

But what bothers me is teens can't combine anything. I was really hoping they could combine a part time job with a hobby. But it's not possible.

Maybe when their sim gets promoted, they could give a pop up notification where the player can choose to drop the part time job or choose another one with a workable time slo. I think it makes sense just like in real life.
