What you need: Expansion Pack GET TO WORK

My father was a truck driver. In the beginning, he was often away for weeks at a time, driving all over Europe. As a toddler, I called him by his last name.

When I got older, he switched to less distant destinations. He still drove around all day long, and boy, he drove the fattest tractors, so many axles ... as a little girl I was impressed by the huge wheels.

You can tell I still care a lot about that career. Even today, the smell of leather and gasoline almost makes me go into raptures! My sons didn't inherit any of that, they never experienced their grandpa like that either. They also don't like driving as much as I do. I clearly got that from my father, the truck driver. :)

This career exists, wow, in 5 languages:

- English (by me),

- German (my pleasure, it is integrated),

- Italian (by RoryCrafting, thanks!), it is integrated in the mod,

- Chinese (Mandarin and simplified Chinese by yuanchilli, thanks to him too!) and

- Polish (by Daisy1728, thanks such a lot!), here to get:

Just add the polish translation file to your main mod in the mod folder and you're done. That was easy. :D

And last, but not least, the instructions for the somewhat more difficult installation of the Chinese translation, but actually also works, once you've done it, it's baby easy:

You need BOTH download ZIPs for the mod to work. So you will receive two ZIPs.

The first ZIP contains the career itself in 2 files. Unzip the career zip and move or copy the package file AND the script file both into your mod folder.

Good job!

After that take the translation ZIP:

1. open the zip file - you will get 2 files again:

a) MentalTherapistCareerCHS.package (simplified Chinese), and

b) MentalTherapistCareerCHT.package (traditional Chinese).

2. CHOOSE ONLY 1 package, a) OR b). If you take both, there may be problems that I can neither predict nor fix.

3. drag or copy your chosen file to the mod folder where you also put the main mod (Mental Therapist).

4. Done. No further action required. Have fun! :D

And here are the spoilers:

Level 1: Newcomer: Welcome to the Road of Life!

You're a Newcomer. Everybody knows. So in the beginning, you might go through some of those funny little pranks of the other guys, like running out of gas for no reason, being shown the wrong ways, or just being the target of ridicule from your colleagues. But what the heck? Most of the time you drive all alone, on your own, and don't meet anybody but border patrols and dirty toilets at Freeway service stations. Really, that should not impress you much. Just take a deep breath of the freedom on the road - this is all you ever wanted.

Information: Days: Mon, Wed, Fri, Sun — Hours: 0:00 - 24:00 (24 hours) — Salary: ﹩50

Level 2: Freshman: Staying awake!

So your colleagues still make fun of you, but you have built up your routine. You still drive all day long, and sometimes you wish it could be a bit faster - but, hey, you're taming a giant. Just get your goods to the customer on time, and we will soon reward your diligence well.

Information: Days: Tue, Thu, Sat — Hours: 0:00 - 24:00 (24 hours) — Salary: ﹩60

Level 3: Colleague: It was about time!

Your colleagues finally accept you, you, and your little (and big) mistakes and quirks. After all, you've been driving for the company for quite a while now, and that's saying something. Rumor also has it that you have a lot of skill with machines and people. At customs, you're on a first-name basis with the officials. Keep it up!

Information: Days: Tue, Thu, Sat — Hours: 0:00 - 4:00 (28 hours) — Salary: ﹩80

Level 4: Reliable Buddy: Hey, Buddy!

Who wants to know something, asks you first! Who wants to have a good chat, calls you with the walkie-talkie. Yes, you are now really popular, people appreciate your reliability because no matter how the weather or your mood will be, you drive on and drive on and drive on ... Great!

Information: Days: Mon, Wed, Fri — Hours: 0:00 - 12:00 (36 hours) — Salary: ﹩120

Level 5: Steel Pedal: Step on the gas!

You will not fall asleep. You will not slow down. You will only stop when there is no other way. Your seat muscles have entered into a wonderful symbiosis with the driver's seat. Your left arm is dark brown, your eyes are those of an eagle and when it gets boring, you sing a few songs. God, you are good!

Information: Days: Mon, Thu — Hours: 0:00 - 24:00 (48 hours) — Salary: ﹩150

Level 6: Highway Expert: Yes, I know them.

Ask {0.SimFirstName}, {M0.he}{F0.she} knows this highway. Like {M0.his}{F0.her} pocket, to be exact. You laugh your head off when someone doesn't know a way and wonder when people complain about traffic. What's wrong with all of them?

Information: Days: Mon, Thu — Hours: 0:00 - 24:00 (48 hours) — Salary: ﹩180

Level 7: Connoisseur of all Roads: Yes, I know them all!!!

You'd bet you could recognize any street by the taste of its dust! Not only the highways, no, in your memory palace every dirt road in the sticks, but every building at the ass of the world has meaning because you were already there. Your colleagues now have great respect for you. They don't even talk quietly behind your back anymore. You are just {0.SimFirstName}!

Information: Days: Mon, Fri — Hours: 0:00 - 36:00 (60 hours) — Salary: ﹩200

Level 8: International Expert: Arrivigracie, mes amichachos!

You've picked up a few words of Windenburgish, are now fluent in Sixam, and occasionally surprise your friends with foreign delicacies. Yes, travel educates. So much so, you're even a little conceitedly educated by now. But that doesn't bother a great mind!

Information: Days: Mon, Fri — Hours: 0:00 - 36:00 (60 hours) — Salary: ﹩210

Level 9: Truck God: You're legend!

Who hasn't heard of {0.SimFirstName}? So! But this one really has no idea! This Sim is known as a mad dog on the whole continent! There is nothing {M0.he}{F0.she} can't deliver! They say {M0.he}{F0.she} can drive the devil's truck and haul pianos up to the 8th floor by himself without an elevator. They say {M0.he}{F0.she} can make an engine purr just by laying hands on it. They say {M0.he}{F0.she} is the {M0.god}{F0.Godess} of eternal roads!

Information: Days: Mon, Fri — Hours: 0:00 - 41:00 (65 hours) — Salary: ﹩250

Level 10: The Boss: Hire and fire!

Now you don't like to drive anymore. You stay at your desk and regulate the traffic there. You hire newcomers and cheer on people who can't drive or are unreliable. All this makes good money for you. Well, you're not a legend anymore - as a boss you're always lonely and alone. But hey - you're also rich, which makes up for a lot.

Information: Days: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri — Hours: 8:00 - 18:00 (10 hours) — Salary: ﹩7000
