What game mechanics do you want more insight on? Because I'll explain it!

I have to admit to being curious about Layoffs. I've dealt with several Work Rivals through the years, but have never encountered a Layoff, even though I know they are mentioned in the game. I'm just wondering if an in-game Layoff is just for a short period and then the sim can go back to their career. Or if it's like they are during an RL bad economic time, where you get laid off - rather than outright fired - so that way you're not able to claim Unemployment benefits. (Which is just plain cruddy of a company to do, because they've already paid for your unemployment benefits while you were working for them; it's not like they suddenly need to pay more just because an ex-employee starts a new claim.)

I just made the post about Layoffs! It's pretty much random when they happen, and after the layoff you can't rejoin the career for a while, but you can eventually!

I enjoyed reading your post about those, Intern_Waffle_64, Thank you for being so informative. 

That's a nice list you have compiled there many thanks and congrats on being highlighted in the Friday-Highlights Waffle ❤️

Thank you very much for your thoughtful analyses of various parts of the Sims 4 gameplay! Although I have quite a few game mechanics I am interested to learn more about, my biggest interest is in Sim autonomy and what all that encompasses. I am a player who quite enjoys just watching my Sims live their lives (and taking screenshots at opportune moments), but I am eternally debating to what degree I can let them do this and how often I need to intervene to actually get things accomplished, such as continuing the family line or making money via a job. Just an idea! thank you again for the interesting posts you have already made.
