Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I created my second sim and was told to go start a career in the restaurant. However, when I tap on the icon to start the "Out of the Frying Pan" story, the only option I am given is "Choose Later."

I created my second sim and was told to go start a career in the restaurant. However, when I tap on the icon to start the "Out of the Frying Pan" story, the only option I am given is "Choose Later." I tried waiting a while, closing and reopening the app, going to another area and coming back, etc. and nothing seems to work. I cannot progress in the quest to give my second sim this job.

Could you take a screen print? Is it the screen with the big round icon in the middle? What if you click that?

Hi, I'm getting the same problem with my sims.

My first sim cannot change her job (She's a cook) and my second sim can't join ANY jobs available Frown

The only option I get is "choose later", but nothing happens after waiting or re-opening the app.

I have the same problem with careers! I also have it with hobbies too! I tried to get a screenshot but my phone wouldn't allow me to send them. It's really frustrating and makes me not want to play anymore and ask for a refund on the money I spent.

That's a BUTTON? It just looks like an image, nothing more, especially with text at the bottom ("Choose Later") that would indicate a proper button would be at the bottom. May be better to update the design to better indicate it is a button and not just an image.

FINALLY WORKED IT OUT. When you click the pink bag by the stove and the career comes up, where it says “choose later” at the bottom, LITERALLY just click the circle with image of the plate, tissue and wine glass
