Active Career Question!

Hey y'all I had a random thought yesterday that I wanted to share with you!

I was thinking for those of you who play with active careers (Get to Work, Reaper Career from Life and Death, Naturopathic career from Enchanted Nature) what non-active careers would you all want to see?

Hi I know you're probably not working on this at the moment so a suggestion for non active career could be a professional fencing career and for the active a wedding planner sometime in the future.

It would be great to have an active career of a figure skater, ice hockey player or a singer or a top model. In general there are some skills in game which are used just as hobbies and it will be great to have them as part of a career.

Love your Mods BTW! I didn't get Enchanted by Nature because honestly the build stuff was not my style. I do however like the idea of a mix Rabbit Hole and "Work from Home" type career that the game play offers. I haven't seen a Mod that does that yet. Some extra Non Active Careers I wouldn't mind seeing is maybe some more part time ones for kids/teens. Like Paper route, or dog walking (early am before school) type of things. Musician that is focused on one instrument (the player can choose), maybe can branch off into entertainer or orchestra director...

I like active careers sometimes but definitely do appreciate being able to get rid of one of my Sims so the work from home ones can get more attention. ;) As to what I'd love to see in an inactive caterer, it would be something that definitely allows more moneymaking with regular raises and better hours. I'd prefer something musical but not just piano entertainer, etc. And while band touring sounds great (haven't tried it yet but want to) what about classical music? What about orchestra member or director? It seems limited currently - more like just a single performer. Using the violin or piano or a new instrument of course. ;) Sounds like something you'd like doing!

I'd love to have an Accountant career, which would tie in nicely with the business career. :)

I would love to see more unlawful careers similar to the one in game. Hacker, scammer, etc. Perhaps an active burglar career.

These are super silly, but it would be fun to have a "trust fund kid" and "slacker" careers, with "work" related pop ups (like the kind you get from time to time in rabbit hole careers.) Like for "trust fund kid," it could be like "take the private jet to Selvadorada" with an outcome like "you got attacked by bees" or "you found a secret treasure" (if you want base game compatible, you don't have to get an object for the secret treasure, it can be a buff or something) and for "Slacker," it could be like "claim it's your birthday for a free drink at a bar" with the consequences of "the mixologist is onto you and kicks you out" or "the mixologist congratulates you and gives you a drink." Maybe the slacker can get paid a few bucks for successful hustling or loans that will never be repaid and the trust fund kid could get paid something obscene like 10,000 simoleons per day. Not sure what the promotion track would be for either, although they probably don't need promotions.

Dentist, optician, dog trainer/behaviourist, occult jobs that involve mixing with your own occult and others for work tasks, mafia career, caregiver maybe where you help run a care home or have to check on them as work tasks. Event planner- would love this as an active career. I don't mind rabbit hole careers but I enjoy having immersive interesting work tasks for promotions. Rather than just practice writing or write a book 😂

Active real estate! I love Kiarasims active Lawyer career but I would love to see one where more npcs show up to work vs the one npc we get with that mod as you move up in the branch

I only use non-active careers since I play a family game. I try to have the parents work different days (or one has to take vacay), or grandpa and granma move in. So, I like the dentist idea, set your own hours kinda things, like crafts. I really like careers to have a good way to move up the ladder so that I have a goal for them. I like the dentist idea as well.

Realtor is a great idea! Especially if it then comes with interactions where we can ask the client if "is the home size adequate?," "is the lot size adequate?," "thoughts about the location?" "how do you imagine using the space?," " how do you imagine decorating?" "Will you be renovating?"etc.

NN · January 7, 2026

Thanks for asking us! From your post, I'm not completely clear on if you want an "active"or "non active," suggestion: If "ACTIVE" then "Town Crier" A Historical/Decades/Medieval active career, where you go to a different community / generic lot every morning from 7-12, and 'Gossip' to twenty sims every day. Not complex, but still amusing and fun. 😉 but if "NON ACTIVE", then: Crime scene investigator: but the detective returns home, every few days, with a random object in their inventory to observe and connect to the crime.

If possible could you make would tour an active career. Its really already active but is possible to have an active concert?

thatssojordy · January 7, 2026

I’ve gotten a lot of requests to make it active! I want to focus on the current one for now to get most of the basics done but I’m open to an active version!

I would love to be able to run a music studio using your music mod, like as the record company hiring the artist. There are a lot of amazing builds that exist for a record company (that contain a music studio) but are not able to really function as a business because that element doesn’t exist in the game.

t
thatssojordy · January 7, 2026

There is a module being developed for this type of thing for world tour! As for making it active we’ll see 👀
