Sim “stuck” at work whilst at home (2020)

[koba_sue]

@crinrict When I think abou it again, I think that my Sim stuck at class first and then at work.

[crinrict]

@koba_sue Do you have one or more sims in your household ?

@crinrict Guys, on crinrict's suggestion, i fixed this by leaving my job, then next time i went at work i didn't get the bug, so far looks like that's the only solution.. 😔

[koba_sue]

@crinrict Currently four Sims. But when the bug occurred only one Sim.

@koba_sue OK. Thanks.

I made a little overview with all the causes for this: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CURRENT-ISSUE-Sim-appearing-grayed-out-Stuck-at-work-class/m-p...

If you're not sure what caused it, this thread is fine

@crinrict  When my sim still had a job the double person icon would be in the corner when not at work to be able to choose my sims working cadence or to leave early and my portrait would be grayed out. When she would would quit, her portrait wouldn't be grayed out anymore but the icon would still be there when not working. Doing my eviction/household shuffle got rid of the icon and seemed to reset the bugged out status completely. It did NOT work and did nothing to help when she was still employed.

I haven't had a recurrence since my first time doing my quit/household shuffle combo.

As for the original cause, I got a notification of some event going on downtown or was invited. So I queued up going there while at work. I never stopped at home after work and just went straight there which was unexpected. Then the glitch started when I got back.

@skyfalcon1209 One of the rabbithole events or one you actually go to ? Merging your thread with the current stuck at work one.

Neither Leaving Early or Quitting works and yes this is still happening - just happened to a Sim on his first day of work after graduating University two days ago

@pigletray73 There's many individual issues that can cause it.

Are you also still getting the 134 error ? Not this.

I made a master thread with explanations here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/CURRENT-ISSUE-Sim-appearing-grayed-out-Stuck-at-work-class/m-p...

Check the links which one fits yours best. If you don't know, use this one: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Sim-stuck-at-work-Patch-1-66-133/m-p/9169565

If you're still getting 134, try repairing your game.

I'm not still getting 134, just a member of the household who becomes unplayable - even if I restart and reload the game
