Mixologist behind bar, but not tending it, unavailable for orders

The mixologist bug is not fixed contrary to what forum is saying. They can't be clicked to serve drink, but only to talk with them. As well as the bar. The bug is occuring in the cocktail bar of Oasis Springs for the moment. I play with just a few packs activated and MCCC. 

Note by crinrict

Please use this thread if your Sims stay behind the bar and start socializing/idle interactions. This will make the interactions temporarily disappear. In my case they always came back after a short while. 

I'm wondering if they just put in a time-out instead of making the option be available all the time.

Use this thread: Bartender wanders off from bar to socialize | EA Forums - 12900271 if your bartender starts wandering off from behind the bar and socializes at the tables or elsewhere.

    Bartender perform tricks but you cannot order anything. Reseting the bartender does not work. I am on console so I dont have mods or anything and it still is not fixed even though it was promised to be fixed. 
    I have had this issue for a while and it’s so annoying. Bars and nightclubs don’t give the same vibe anymore.

    • Options to order not on bar or bartender/bartender just doing idle interactions --> Fixed issue. Reported in OP. Please test without mods/cc if you still see this

      this is NOT fixed for me at all, it is even worse. I am on console so I don’t have mods or anything. Resetting sim does not work either.

  • This is not fixed in my game as of today. The bartender is usually at their post but they are constantly performing bar tricks instead of tending the bar. Sometimes my sim can order a drink but the bartender never fills the order because they stop to start practicing tricks and sometimes my sim simply can't order at all.

    I know its boring but if a sim marked as a bartender for an event could simply "walk to bar, stand behind bar, tend bar" from the time a lot becomes "active" (due to a played sim showing up) or a social event with a hired mixologist is running on any lot that would be amazing. No "shift changes" during played sim visits (another old problem that I haven't seen as much these days but its annoying) and no showing off with bar tricks.

    Bartenders just do your job please - thank you 😊
