Is there a list of part time jobs we can get?
And can I work at any of them in my pajamas?

[MaximumZero]

Boom. List of part time jobs.

Also, no. All the jobs, even the part time ones, have dress codes.

Edit: That said, you can also be self employed in several ways:

Skills that can be self-employed as actual work-from-home careers: Alchemy (you read that right,) Fishing, Gardening, Inventing, Nectar Making, Painting, Sculpting, Writing.

Other things you can do for money: Start a band or busk in a park, break rocks with MZ, write a book or comic book, grow plants with Vector and scrdest, tend bar, make a sculpture, paint, adventure in the catacombs (or invent the Miner and dig a hole to adventure in,) go fishing, hack the interwebs (if you have computer whiz,) get to level 3 in logic and search the galaxy for new stars with the telescope, or dig into alchemy or chemistry and make potions. Once you get enough money, you can buy properties and turn a profit doing nothing!

[Rose]

I thought you could edit your job clothes in CAS after the fact?

[MaximumZero]

You can, for most jobs. I suppose you could work in your pajamas, if you wanted to. I guess.

[scrdest]

Let's go start a band, guys!

[Aklyon]

Let's go start a band, guys!

Pajama band?

[scriver]

Let's go start a band, guys!

Yoink and I were almost doing this last Haus, iirc, but then we got too busy busk-dueling, and I got all jealous because his Star-level increased much faster than mine

_{and secretly plotted to drown him in the pool}

[scrdest]

Come to think of that, Madhaus is a pretty decent band name, if with slight ripoffy overtones of another -haus.

[MaximumZero]

I have to find a different place to put my pictures. I've tried to update twice now, and imgur has eaten me for hours.

FakeEditToPreventDoublePosting!

What's this? Day 9! Hooray!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Good morning, you moo...wait, where is scrdest going?

To work on the garden, first thing in the morning. Okay, then.

Vector O's in the morning, for when you're not ready to...I don't know enough about math to make a joke about mathing breakfast. Fuck.

RedKing gets his flirt on on the computer. Before breakfast. Wow, man.

Hey, I can get a real job! Time to get to work.

Yoink takes out the trash. Much approve.

Vector heads out to help scrdest with the garden. I'd say that's a lot of plants, but that's not all of them.

RedKing nailed the interview, and is full time at the bistro now.

Sappho needs to get the hell away from the Haus for a while. Stir crazy indeed.

Barbarossa finds an inconspicuous warehaus to work in. Totally not a criminal front.

Burnt Pies, you hate the outdoors! Where are you going!?

Aha. Both Sappho and BP went to city hall! They're now registered as self-employed. Sappho is a sculptor, and BP is an author. So, now they get more money for what they were already getting money for. Nice.

Meanwhile, Yoink and I are lazy sods.

Capt Kal, where is your hat? Also, there were no relics in stock. Sorry.

Oh, this isn't going well.

What the hell is with the mass exodus? Jeez, guys. scrdest puts on his best and heads out on the town.

Capt Kal in the foreground, playing a spooky game. Yoink in the background, painting the foreground.

Vector and Sappho have a basketball jones. Put me in, coach, I got hoop dreams!

Barbarossa and the...aw, hell, it's that guy! Also, a very famous celebrity.

"Dis guy botherin' you, miss?"

On the other side of town, Japa has a job at the science facility. Meep!

Whatever happened here, Vector, it didn't happen well.

Yoink you are not Bob Ross, and those are not happy little flowers. Unless they are. Fuck, I don't know how to interpret art.

Kal eats spaghetti. Also, I zoomed out way farther than I thought I did for this picture.

Vector gave up on basketball, and Sappho watches RedKing play something called "Gnubb."

Score one for the Greater Carolina Empire!

Holy crap, that guy really is paparazzi! Also, the negatives are with the paparazzi, because he's like, "I'll take your picture with her, but I won't like it." Ah, schadenfreude.

Barbarossa is smoove. Also, that guy must really like the back of her head.

Yoink's happy little flowerpot is added to the collection.

Am I schooling Vector? Probably, but in Gorillaball, not in math jokes. Obviously.

Yoink heads out to parts unknown.

Ah, the nectar press. Majestic.

In you go, little fruits! Many apples!

This is not quite so majestic after all.

Chainsaw is art. Chainsaw is life. Chainsaw is love.

And much vidja games were had that day.

Yoink went to the theater! He's now a professional musician!

Japa decides that there's not enough random shit laying around, so he needs to make a mess.

RedKing is skeptical that I can counter the Gorillaball champions with a Llamaball.

Japa is super hongry! Also, dat face.

Kal gets to work on a wooden sculpture. Not sure where the octopus went.

Lucky for Japa, RedKing had just finished making carbonara.

scrdest is too damn fancy for that guitar.

Barbarossa is determined to break some rocks, but he needs work first.

Sappho says to hell with tables, she's going to stand.

Yoink is not as fancy as scrdest, and judging by Wolfeyez' reaction, not quite as skilled.

Vector decides that it is time for calzone.

Oppa!

The nectar maker needs time alone to do its thing. It's a nectar making machine, not a show-you-what-I'm-doing machine.

Kal is still working diligently with that chisel.

Vector has turned her calzone into a pile of charcoal. Unfortunate.

Barbarossa and scrdest enjoy some carbonara.

Sappho is finally in bed.

RedKing will eradicate the water! Vector talks to her reflection.

The apple nectar is done! It is practically worthless, but still drinkable. 3 bottles worth.

Pull the lever! Oh, hey, I've been breaking rocks for a while now.

This very shiny stone is worth quite a lot of money. About $2k.

Vector is showing off her footy skill in the bathroom. In a puddle of water. I may have to steal the soccer ball from her.

Japa continues doing great work, I think.

He made a wind up whale toy!

Kal made an end table! This will go next to the bed.

That is awful throwing form, BP.

Wolfeyez sure does love to play catch, though.

Vector went to city hall, and is now a registered self-employed gardener. Aw, yiss. Harvest Moon, y'all.

FACE FULL OF CLAY! WHRBLRBLTGLTR!

Japa decides to browse the internets for chatrooms.

On the right, you see a spire cut tiberium, worth ~$7k. On the left, you see the fully mature large spire cut tiberium, worth ~$38k. I sold the big one. We now have much moneys.

So, you all get bedrooms. You get a bedroom, and you get a bedroom, and you get a bedroom! Oh, and they're all in the basement. Hope you don't mind.

Yoink tends the new bar in the Haus. Who else?

Lights out, y'all!

[MaximumZero]

But wait, there's more! I'm double posting anyway!

A wild double update appears! Welcome to day 10! Exclamation point!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

There are a lot of seeds outside. Vector may thank me for gathering them up. Also, the dark, hard to see spots are mushrooms.

This is a gardening station. Time to get serious.

The thing on the right is a food replicator. The food it makes is lower quality (until we learn to use it,) but super filling and you can make anything with it. It's also an instant dishwasher. The future is awesome.

Japa is awake! I'm wondering if he knows how he got into his room.

Japa is the first to use the food replicator. Hey, you can make anything perfectly vegan with that thing. Even steak, I'd assume.

Vegetable stir fry, for the win.

I'm watering the trees, and I didn't even have anything to drink.

Japa goes to work! The sad face is because he's late. I suck at budgeting time. Sorry, man.

Barbarossa heads to work. He's way overdressed.

Kal and RedKing have leftovers. They're suspicious of the food replicator.

Wolfeyez, too. Also, her food is hellaciously high quality.

Let's try this again. Oppa!

Yoink, seriously, that stuff's going to kill you. Stop eating it. There are flies on it!

Sappho makes a painting! It sells for a lot more than it should. $128!

BACK TO CHAINSAW DESTRUCTION CREATION TOWN!

I didn't sell Yoink's painting. It's above his bed. Also, Kal and RK are gaming. Lazy sods.

Yoink decides that sculpting in his underwear is a great idea.

scrdest talks to the plants. He belives that they need a little fascism to grow up healthy. They are in perfect rows now, after all.

Vector picks up all the things.

Then she weeds the trees. They need weeding. I guess. I don't do plants.

Kal snuck up on me and insulted my intelligence for no discernable reason. Kal, you so crazy. Oh, wait, Halfway Haus of Madness. Right.

Screw you, pal. If you were half as intelligent as me, you could finish this joke!

BP is finally awake! It's afternoon! Jeez.

RedKing goes to Washington work.

As does Wolfeyez. They both want to be the very best at cooking.

Much sculpture. Very much.

Japa had a long day at work. He's very grumpy and tired.

See?

scrdest is still fancy, even without the hat.

Yoink is...not so much.

The theater is, though. Damn, dude. That's swanky.

The sculptures are finished! Sappho made a brilliant sculpture of Simcrates in ice, worth over $700. Nice.

Kal begins to paint. This looks awfully familiar.

Japa says to hell with the world, the bed is nice and comfy.

MOAR COWBELL, I mean CHAINSAW. Sappho is the manliest sculptor. I'm a lumberjack, baby...

Barbarossa, I didn't pick your job for you. You did. Totally.
 
What's this? A gift? For me? Nope. It's for BP. Her latest book came in the mail! Good timing, as she just finished her next one, a sports book called "Cool Negotiator Guy," and no, I'm not making that up. $630 a week.

Bookbookbookbookbookbook! Gimme!

Here ya go! Enjoy! (She rejected my gift due to "not knowing me well enough," so I just plopped it into her inventory manually. Take your damn book, BP.) 

OM NOM Eggplant!

Vector has seeds to plant, even though it's dark.

There's a ghost in the Haus. WTF, man, this haus is full.

BP started a new book, "The Tale of the Sports Agent," and gained some fame.

I politely tell the ghost to GTFO.

Then I meditate on the ghost's existence.

Kal is at the mausoleum, ready for adventure!

Vector follows close behind.

Yoink is headed home from work.

Wolfeyez, maybe you should drive next time.

Wolfeyez takes a dip in the pool.

Things didn't go so well for Vector. She found nothing, except zombie bears, fire, burning, and tears. Possibly buring zombie bears.

scrdest tries a magic jelly bean! They do random things to your mood and moodlets.

It makes him smell like old socks. Yuck. Time for a shower.

Kal found the same thing Vector found. Nothing useful.

Sappho made an icetopus! Worth ~$400. Well done.

RedKing, you have the weirdest pickup lines. Seriously.

This is awkward. One of the married women calls to ask you on a date. You politely tell her to shove her date and go out with her husband.

Kal sits down with a book. I should get covers for the chairs.

That didn't last long. Up and painting, Kal is a ball of zoom all of the sudden.

Sappho sits down with a cup of coffee from the steampunk coffee machine on the left.

RedKing deep fries some bacon. The south, y'all.

Japa is...watching Barbarossa sleep. Not creepy at all, Japa.

He then makes some firecracker tofu!

Glorious deep fried bacon.

That's some spicy tofu you got there, Japa. Negative moodlet inbound!

mrrrmrrmrthankthelittlepeoplemrrmrmr...

Sappho eats a magic jelly bean!

It gives her an adrenaline boost. So, she has another.

It makes her super itchy! Time to stop.

Lights out, everyone but Japa, who is milling about randomly!

[Heron TSG]

The face on that warehouse sign is creepy as hell, no wonder I have to wear a suit to work there. That's probably just a dummy-me Japa's watching while I go do nocturnal creepy warehouse things.

Actions:
1. Explore the corporate ladder at the weird warehouse
2. Paint the painting I'm dreaming about

[Vector]

Haha! This was a lot of fun.

1. Organize a Haus-wide mausoleum trip
2. Garden! I wanna help the nectar-makers and the food peoples!

[RedKing]

I could probably come up with a pickup line involving a jellyfish, but....yeah.

Also, I initially parsed your caption to mean that I told the married suitor off and then I asked her husband out on a date. Which is cool by me. (Can the Sims even model homosexuality/bisexuality?)

In any case, next day's actions:
>Go explore this mausoleum, see if I can do any better.
>Eat one of those jellybeans.


I'm worried that with all this fancy stuff, our sims are going to be happy and content and decidedly un-crazy.
Need moar interpersonal drama. I mean, we've only had one fight in 10 days (which I totally won).

[Vector]

Need moar interpersonal drama. I mean, we've only had one fight in 10 days (which I totally won).

u wot m8

[Cptn Kaladin Anrizlokum]

I want more moneys! Getting paid to sculpt sounds good.
Spend the day fishing.
And is there an easy way to level up adventuring skills? If yes, do that.

I must have lost my hat and my statue in a wormhole incident! Stupid wormholes. (Somehow I always lose my hat in video games. I could tell you many tales of video games where hats go mysteriously missing. Minecraft, Mario, The Sims...)
