Problem with tutorial tasks

I have just downloaded the game and I am going through the tutorial tasks. Everything thing was fine until I sent my Sim to work. Next tasks was to end the shift. According to the instructions I was supposed to click on the briefcase next to her name and then click on the free quick complete button. I clicked on the button but there was no quick complete button. Eventually she came home from work (hungry), I still have the end shift task active but now when I click on the briefcase it says I can't send her to work until the next day and the only thing I can do to resolve her  hunger is to eat leftovers because I guess the next task is to learn how to cook.

  • do you have a screen capture of the task?

    I do not see cancelling shift any where in either version 1 or version 2 on the GwG blog

    This is the task I am stuck on. I couldn't complete it because the free quick complete button didn't appear.

    I checked the link, they need to update their site as tutorial tasks have definitely changed.

    This forum is provided by EA but is designed as Player helping Player, in this case we can not do much for you

    Your pic show that your sim is currently at work not that they have finished work for today

    tap the picture of your sim after tapping the striped briefcase on the menu tabs, while your sim is at work

    to see if there is an option to quick complete

    or if there is a red button to cancel work and maybe give you another try to complete the task

    Nothing happened when I clicked the briefcase, the ui you showed never came up.

    The "Free Quick Complete Button" looks a bit different. Sometimes we need to tap the briefcase a second time or, like minicha-em said,  just on the picture of the Sim to get the option.

    Probably you started over already, didn‘t you? It takes less than 10 minutes to get to the same task.

    @Truet318 

    Do NOT click the breifcase other than the striped icon in the simdex tabs

    tap the picture of your sim at work

    and the option should show as @ErinPW also showed

  • Quick free completion button for earning Simoleons, finishing working shift for ending a shift is not working which keeps me stuck and not able to proceed with me tasks.
