So my Sim is obviously not at work, although her picture down at the bottom is saying she is. Because its saying shes at work when its time for her to go to work she wont go. I've tried resetting her, moving her out/back in to the lot, and restarting the game. No clue how to fix it. Any suggestions?

You could call it her dream job.

You may have to do what @Chazzzy suggested a couple times, but it should work. I had to visit three different lots one time when this happened, and other times it's happened, I visit one lot and it fixes itself. Most likely a promotion is stuck.

I've had this happen a few times, switching the active family worked for me.

Apparently per the patch notes, this was fixed in this recent patch.

When this happened to me I had to exit the game without saving. Luckily I save regular so didn't loose to much progress.

I have this happen sometimes, and the only thing I can do is just wait for the game to recognize that she's not at work anymore.

This happened to me recently. There's a few different things you can try that may work for you.

Try to get them to leave early.
Wait for them to actually go to work, then see if problems persist after they return.
Reset Sim using the cheat or shift+click.
Try to travel, see if that does anything.
Save, exit and reenter the game.
If none of these work, repair your game.
I found what worked for me was saving, exiting and reentering, then sending them to work. Try all of these, but don't repair the game unless none of these work.
