Going to Work

When it’s time for my sim to go to work, she won’t do it. I’ve even clicked the “Go to Work” button in the career menu and she still won’t do it. Any help with this would be appreciated!

    @GridironGuy88 there's a troubleshooting guide for consoles here, I'm on Xbox myself

    Sometimes with a Sim who isn't responding to commands I'll restart my game or clear my local save data to see if that makes a difference. Which career is it and have you checked there are no obstructions/locked doors? I've had this with Get to Work careers where I've had 2 Sims in careers like scientist and police where only one Sim will travel and the other stays at home. So I switched to a different Sim in the household on a different lot, checked the info bar for the stuck Sim and they had gone to work off screen.

@simsplayer818 I went through the checklist you gave me and it looks like everything is correct. There are no obstructions or locked doors and can walk right to the end of the driveway.

She is a futures trader in the investor branch. I currently don’t have the Get to Work pack

The next time she needs to go to work I’ll switch to another sim and see if that works. Thanks for your help!
