Part-time Work — The Sims 3 eGuide

In addition to these full-time careers, Sims can pick up part-time jobs at the supermarket, cemetery, bookstore, or day spa. These jobs are for just four hours day, four days a week.

These jobs are designed not to interfere with life too much. For example, a teen might take a job at the supermarket that starts after school at 4 PM and lasts until 8 PM. Or an adult could grab a late-night 6 PM to 10 PM gig helping bury bodies at the cemetery.

Part-time jobs include tones, just like the full-time jobs. However, because relationships and skills don’t determine job performance, the tones are limited to: Business As Usual (average amount of work), Work Hard (put in extra effort), and Take It Easy (minimal effort).

Each part-time job has only three career levels with minimal raises between each promotion. To get ahead at a part-time job, just show up with a good mood and put in a decent day’s labor.

Part-time jobs can be quit via the cellphone. You can go back to work at the same place, but if you wait too long between quitting and going back, you lose any promotions and must start over.
