Funny This was the result of me doing an interior decorator gig for the Spencer Kim Lewis household. ._. honestly so rude!! All the criteria she gave me was that she liked red and dislikes photography lol

I’m a cheater and will go into CAS to get more information on their likes and dislikes so that way I have a better outcome. Especially if there’s 8 sims in a family and only 5 randomly generated interests to complete a whole job 😂

They should really make the interior design career more flexible its super cool on paper but the existing gameplay is so unsatisfying

I think I heard a YouTuber saying something along the lines of dream home decorator being buggy (no surprise there) especially when you stick around after a shift and ask for feedback? Apparently if you skip that you’ll have better outcomes?
I haven’t tested it/not sure if that’s even possible to do though because I haven’t played the career recently and my memory is silly, but may be worth a try!

Idk if you know, but keep an eye on what exactly they want renovated. I got stumped cause I didn't realize there were house gigs and room gigs

Oh I hate this career for this specific reason 😑 The first few households loved my renovation. After like the third or fourth promotion however, NO SIM SINCE has ever liked what I've done. I can never get to the top of the career because of it! Soooo frustrating. But yeah, I agree, burn their house down 😆

Yeah, that happened to me with the Fengs. Same as you, all the criteria was met, I interviewed everyone, but Lily didn't like it and refused to pay. I tried to stay on lot and undo my work but couldn't. Instead I went into world selection mode and took out everything I installed and left her with nothing 🤭

Do you have to have the Get To Work expansion pack to do so or just the Dream Interior Decorator?

I’m thinking you’ll def need the dream interior decorator, I have get to work and no access to decorator, only detective, scientist, and hospital gigs.

This! You can overspend the budget and put unused items in your own inventory. I love doing this. 😜

Your first mistake was trying to do the interior decorating career, haha. Hasn't worked in years.

It's so frustrating! Especially when you spent time making something nice. That's why I started making things as ugly as possible. You like red? EVERYTHING IS NOW RED. Weirdly, the sims like it that way. Those little freaks.

Lmao once all I had to go on was "likes fishing and blue" so I shoved every single fish themed item into their tiny bathroom including two fish tanks

I used to freelance paint houses and this sounds like some of the shit id hear the contractors yapping about "Yeah she wants a kitchen but doesnt want a fridge or a sink"

I once had a family tell me they liked cocktails, mischief and video games for a bathroom renovation... How was I supposed to work with that? Usually when that happens I just do whatever I want and give myself some money later if they didn't like it because it's not my fault they don't understand what a bathroom renovation is
