Slacker

The Slacker career track is usually a want of a Sim with the Romance aspiration, but can be chosen by any Sim at the age of teen, adult or elder. In The Sims 2, the career reward object is an AquaGreen Hydroponic Garden. It is awarded at the Party DJ level and builds the creativity skill. Neither The Sims 3 nor any of its expansions have a Slacker career, though part-time jobs are similar.

The Sims
The Slacker career track comes with The Sims expansion pack Livin' Large. The Slacker career is the lowest paying career in The Sims.
