Stop wanting to work at a college! Or train people! Or hustle things!
chintznibbles:
Hey, JM, have you made a hack which stops otherwise reasonable sims from randomly acquiring "Work in cafeteria" and other (I think) university-only wants when they live in normal neighborhoods? I know of no way to actually get said sim to a cafeteria to have them satisfy the damn want, anyway.
Also annoying are the "Be a personal trainer" when you own no exercise equipment and "Hustle pool" when you don't have a pool table. I mean, yeah, sure, community lots exist... but who has time to visit them, anyway? And I'd have to go in and manually build "new" university-style lots in old neighborhoods, but that's work, and work is bad.
It's not exactly a priority, but if there was a small sanity check involved in these wants it'd be helpful.
Ancient Sim:
I've only ever seen "hustle pool". Neither of the others have ever come up in my game. I think JM said it's because they're overpowered by others before they get the chance to make it, but it still seems odd that you and others have said they get them all the time, whereas I never get them at all. I often seriously wonder whether some games are coded differently to others. I can imagine Maxis doing that just to confuse us even more.
Kitiara:
I get it constantly. Darren Dreamer, who of course has never seen a cafeteria, is obsessed with working in one! I found a hacked stove that lets neighborhood people 'work in cafeteria' in their own home, but as soon as it is satisfied it pops right back up. I find this extremely frustrating, not just with Darren (who I rarely play) but with all my neighborhood sims with college wants. Especially the ones who were never there! Please, you frackin' pixel *****, there is more to simulated life than being a personal trainer. Go woohoo someone. Or yourself. Whatever.

Kitiara, your signature is priceless.
I must have the same game release as Ancient. I have never ever seen those wants in any of my sims. Although, I must admit that I tend to completely ignore their wants as soon as they hit permanent platinum and have enough asp points to last their life-time.
Also, about 95 % of my pixel people are knowledge sims. I have absolutely no clue if that's relevant or not, but I thought I mention it anyway.

Kitiara:
Thank you Veilchen, it evolved from a DI thread.
Oh, and most of mine are knowledge too, makes skilling really pay off.
