Sims 5 Section 4 - Skills, Chores, Education, Careers & Career Titles

First off I want to mention that I would like one significant change to Friendships and Reputation. I think that who you are friends with and what your Reputation should have a much more significant impact upon the course of your Career & Social circle. If you are an Evil Sim having a bad reputation will help you in Careers that not being very nice like the Criminal Career track, Mad Scientist or Scam Artist would be a by product of. Your friends will also be bad people. Conversely being normal Sim that isnt evil a good reputation will garner much more friends of the better sort and more significant advances in your career if you are friends will influential people. Your associates should mean something why else have them.

Skills

Base Game Skills

Charisma
Cleaning - Hidden Skill
Culinary Skills
- Baking
- Cooking - The same cooking skill can be used for many different types of cooking without the need to create new skills in later packs
  Cooking Skill Techniques for subsequent Packs
  - Candy Making & Chocolate Work
  - Canning
- Mixology
  - Barista (Coffee)
  - Juicing
  - Mixology

- Logic
- Physical Fitness - The benefit of having high PF is that it will effect every other skill that depends of physical fitness as its basis - Dancing, Martial Arts, Swimming, etc. Faster leveling, higher proficiency, greater endurance
- Piano & Pipe Organ - One skill to play two different but extremely similar instruments
- Singing
- Sketching
- Writing
Note: Personally I feel that the Cooking Skill is sufficient to cover Canning & Candy Making. However I wouldn't mind a 5 level hidden skill for each that would influence proficiency and output if it absolutely made a difference.

Skill Notes
- The dancing skill to not only impart proficiency with each level BUT to add a new style of dance. Tango, Salsa, Tap etc.
- Baking and cooking skills separate and both in the Base Game
- Cleaning as a hidden skill again. I like the idea of being able to be quicker and more effective upon experience.
- Jewelry making
- The Life skills should make a comeback but you have to take the class and pay for it rather than just reading books. Fire Safety, First Aid, Parenting, Anger Management, etc.
- Alchemy should go back to being separate from a Witches Spell casting. However only Fortune Tellers, Witches or Vampires can learn it.
- Hidden skills are fun I like the idea of a Sim getting better at a game or activity over time.
- Like in other packs Careers should be directly affected by skills for example Firefighters must have Athletic, Fire Safety, First Aid and Logic. Life Guards should have Athletic, Swimming and First Aid, Doctors should have Logic, Charisma and First Aid
Cleaning & Household Chores - Home & Community - Hopefully This Chore List will appease those that want more chores in game. The Butler & Maid should be capable of doing most of the list with exception of the obvious Gardner tasks.

  After School Activities - Activities that Children and Teens can have their school day ends.
  
  Note: I think the after school activities should be somewhat dynamic and playable. For example a Chess Team member going to a place where they have multiple chess tables and engaging in practice or tournaments. Cheerleaders learning new routines. Astronomy Club members having an evening field activity. Scouts going to a camping area to learn to make a fire, erect a tent, identify plants.
  
  After School Activities can have Opportunities that have rewards attached to them

  - Criminal - I think that the Criminal Career should be the opposite career to the Detective Career. It should be an active career. You should be able to plan capers and heists. It should have tools to acquire and skills necessary to accomplish the heists. The two branches should be very different to play than the other.
