The Sims 4 offers many career options, and practical job concerns such as hours, salary, and the ability to work from home influence choices. Real-life job searching involves similar considerations but is constrained by personal ability. Skill acquisition in reality can be slow despite practice, as shown by limited musical progress after many hours. Some careers align poorly with certain personal traits: criminal activity requires deception and noticing details, which may conflict with hyper-focused task work and poor lying ability. Astronaut careers demand strong science and math skills and rigorous testing; telescopic observation can satisfy space interest without formal qualifications.
I can't even get away with being the impostor in Among Us without being instantly discovered. I'm also bad at being a crew mate as well, since I have a tendency to wander over dead bodies without noticing. My entire skill set comprises hyper-focusing on tasks. As a result, I'd be a terrible criminal. I cannot convincingly lie, and if I was trying to commit a crime there's no way I'd notice the evidence I left behind.
Astronaut is just as unfeasible as being a criminal for me, but at least you don't get sent to jail for failing to get into NASA. Science has never been a particularly strong subject for me and nor is math. I am absolutely fascinated by space but understand nothing about it. I'll stick with my telescope, which allows me to see the beauty of the stars without needing to pass an exam and a bunch of complicated tests or experience a stomach-churning trip.
