Part-time job

The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 allows teens, young adults and elders to take a part-time job. In The Sims 3, adults can also take a part-time job.

This is useful for Sims attending school as it does not interfere with their school schedule. Older Sims can take part-time jobs too, though. They pay less per hour, but have fewer hours overall, thus not being as time-consuming as a full-time job.

The Sims 2 allows teens and elders to get part-time jobs in any career track (except those from University) but cannot get "normal" jobs. Young adults can get jobs on campus as barista and cafeteria workers. Downtown also offers part-time work as DJs and bartenders.

Sims can apply directly at the work place for all part time jobs in The Sims 3. Performance options are limited to: Business As Usual (normal workday), Work Hard (more performance, but more stress), and Take It Easy (less performance, but less stress). Promotions are dependent only on Mood.
