I think I mis-read your post. You mentioned something about extra days off. Was it more than the official days off that your sim had? I've never had that happen in a RH job.
Btw, about all the bugs an glitches and stuff, when TSR's forum was very active, there was one lady who posted whose boyfriend worked for EA. She said "you don't want to work there!!" It sounds like a white collar sweat shop where all the powers that be who run the company care about nothing, but profit.

I used to play a single player game called 1602 AD and there were a few sequels to it. The original parent company who made the game was going to sell it to EA, but many of the players said "noooooooooooooo!!!!! Not them!!!!! They'll ruin it!" I guess EA has quite the reputation!
