[LD] Player does not immediately enter the Death career after the phone call

After they mentioned that the *Life & Death* phone call would be tweaked specifically for the "Macabre" trait, I thought the *The Sims* team would take the opportunity to fix an oversight: when the Grim Reaper calls to offer you a position in the Death career, you are taken to the career menu instead of being immediately added to the career.

However, in another expansion (I believe *Eco Lifestyle*?), when you are offered a job, you are added immediately without the menu appearing. This breaks immersion.

In today's Q&A (June 23, 2026), I asked the devs if this oversight—or bug—would be fixed, given that the "Laundry List" mentions an adjustment to that same Grim Reaper phone call system. They said no, claiming that's simply how the career-joining UI works. But that isn't true, since it doesn't happen with other job offers.

I then asked them to let the team know, and the dev also suggested I make a post on the forum.

I’ve attached a video showing how the system breaks immersion when a pop-up appears allowing you to choose any career right after the Grim Reaper himself calls you. It also renders the phone call pointless.

A server member asked for the career entry levels to be adjusted to match the other system (likely the *Eco Lifestyle* one); I liked their suggestion and believe the starting level could be calculated based on skills—resulting in a higher or lower level—rather than just defaulting to level 5.
