I also sometimes don't have the career advance at all. Maybe I want my working sims to stay at low level jobs without getting promoted, so I use the cards to provide story instead, by suggesting the sim do certain things in response, like take a vacation or make a friend or whatever, so that the random ideas help drive the story instead of advance the career. Anyway, these ideas have made them more interesting for me.

I... didn't think of that. That's a great start, thank you!
I wonder if it's possible to remove the gender check for one specific career and randomize which version of a card you'll get though. The idea of getting as many options as possible continues to haunt me. I kinda feel like even if it is - it's probably way beyond my "skills" here. Still, I think I've got an idea of a simpler workaround, with keeping the descriptions and titles of different levels the same and using cards based promotion/demotion system to mix things up a bit.
On the other hand, the amount of promoted/demoted memories this thing will leave... Is there a way to disable them in this specific case?
