Part-time job: Difference between revisions

Part-time jobs are not labeled as such. All [[career track#The Sims 2|career tracks]] (other than [[Natural Science]], [[Artist]], [[Show Business]], and [[Paranormal#The Sims 2|Paranormal]]<ref group="note">These careers are only open to [[college]] graduates</ref>) have parallel part-time tracks which only go to level 3. When a teen or elder looks for a job through the [[Newspaper#The Sims 2|newspaper]] or [[Computer#The Sims 2|computer]], only positions in the part-time tracks will be available. A teen in high school or an elder who has retired from a full-time job will have a second tab in the job panel, which will show the part-time job. [[Young adult]]s can't have jobs with regular hours, but can work on campus as baristas and cafeteria workers. [[Downtown (The Sims 2)|Downtown]]{{vgversion|TS2:NL}} also offers part-time work as DJs and bartenders.

 

In ''The Sims 3'', Sims aged teen or older can take a part-time job. These jobs pay less per hour, but have fewer hours overall, so they are not as time-consuming as full-time jobs. All part-time jobs only have 3 levels, and Sims cannot retire from part-time jobs, so they will not receive pensions. Sims can apply directly at the work place for all part-time jobs. 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. Sims employed in a part-time job will not receive any career opportunities.

 

Teens are only able to work part-time jobs; they cannot be employed in full-time jobs. Work schedules for teen Sims are set so that they do not interfere with their school schedule. Teens who participate in [[Afterschool activity|afterschool activities]]{{Vgversion|TS3:G}} are not able to get a part-time job that starts between 3 PM and 5 PM. They may only work as a Mausoleum Clerk.
