This post is an update of my shop, I hadn’t been playing for a while as I got really bored of having no goals (but that is for another post!) so I decided to go back on and redesign my whole shop to make the whole thing a bit more exciting again!
I will post a before and after picture of the shop so you can really see the difference. There were some thing’s that I really liked, the layout of the changing rooms and the wedding and ski displays so I have kept them, but moved some parts for better use of walls.
The main things were; I wanted to fill the excess space that previously had no use, I wanted to include more of the wonderful floor displays and I wanted it to all flow together nicely.
Teacher is one of 8 careers your adult sims can have (not including profession careers) and this post explains all you need to know about this career.
How do I start this career?
You firstly need to build the elementary school which is one of the goals in the Preparing for Preteens Quest. Then you will be able to select teacher from the list of careers.
Once your sim is a teacher you can click on the pulsing suitcase on the simtracker to send them to work once a day. During this time you won’t see them at work and you cannot go to the school, on the simtracker it will just say they are at work, once the time is up they will arrive back at home and be rewarded with the simoleons and XP they earned for that shift. The more they work, the higher level they will reach in that career and the more money they will earn.
You can then send your sims to work again at/after 12am as it is the start of a new day.
You can send your sims to work anytime of the day for 7 hours for levels 1-3 and 5 hours for levels 4 and 5, once they finish their shift you will receive the simoleons and XP they have earned. When they reach a new level in that career a pop up will appear to show you how much they will earn for the next shift.
What are the levels and how much money and XP do you earn for a day at work?

Here you can see your sims career and the level they are on and if you click on the symbol of the career you will be able to see how much your sims earn and you can quit jobs from here too.
Yes you can buy the teachers blackboard from the promotions r us store or hobby and career items tab of the home store. It costs S1,900 and once placed in your sims house you can practice teaching for 3 hours. During this time your career bar will increase like it does when they go to work (but slower)
LEVEL UNLOCKS: 16 UNLOCKS: weather machine + snow park TIME LIMIT: 2 days PRIZE: snow outfits
YOU NEED TO COMPLETE THE SOUS JUDGEMENTAL QUEST BEFORE YOU CAN BEGIN THIS QUEST
Completing this quest unlocks the snow park and the ability to change the weather in your sims town! If you complete in the time limit you will unlock snow outfits for all your sims. You can still complete this quest to unlock the snow park and weather machine once the time is up but you won’t get the snow outfits
You can now build the Snow Park and begin the Figure Skating Hobbyyou also unlock the weather machine, keep reading for how to use it!
NOTE: the Snow Park is needed for the Seniors quest so build it before then
Using the Weather Machine- firstly the weather machine can be found in the electronics section for S70,000, you can have one per household
Once placed at a house you can:
Make it day all the time, or night all the time regardless of the time of day
You can make the weather random
You can make it rain (so you can use umbrellas!) (your sims can also get struck by lightning which makes them inspired!)
You can make it snow (so you can freeze pools and complete the ice skating hobby on them)
To get the weather back to normal you can resume day/night cycle or select blue skies
Time Limited Prize: Snow outfits
Is the prize worth it? Yes I think so, the snow outfits are free and they include snowboard suits and other items like woolly hats and earmuffs! Perfect to wear at the snow park!
Where can I find them? Outfits, hats and earmuffs (hair section) are in the wardrobe.
I have missed this quest! Why can’t I start it yet?
You cannot miss main quests they have to be completed in order. You need to complete all previous quests (list can be found here) and reach level 16 before you can start this quest
Can I complete this quest even though I have passed level 16?
Yes, you just need to complete all previous quests then this quest will start automatically
How do I become friends with the alien?
Be nice to Osiris until your sim becomes friends with him, do this again to become best friends when you get that goal
What do you mean when you say a goal can be started early?
Any goal that you can normally do can be started early because you will have access to it and any goal that you can’t normally do you will have to wait until you get the goal to be able to complete it
The tip with this method is to put the sim doing that action early in a different house that you cannot go to until you get that goal or it will not work
I have spent S16,000 on items but the goal will not complete, why?
Make sure you are just buying items from the electronics section of buy mode
How do I negotiate with a sim eating plant?
You need to grow lettuce until it turns into a sim eating plant then when it has you will be able to negotiate with it
How do I get my sims to woohoo?
You need two sims who are partners to be able to get this interaction
I already have a world globe, do I have to buy another one?
Yes you do or you cannot complete this quest
I don’t have a stereo, where can I find one?
You can buy one from the electronics section
What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
Snow outfits
What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to unlock the snow park and weather machine before you can move onto the next quest
I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests
Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit
I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this? This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post
