New Global Mod: Sims Work Every Day

I wanted a mod that goes with all my careers at once. So this is a global mod that effects all Maxis and custom (adult) careers.
When you go to the jobs panel you can see which days your sim has to go to work and when they have a day off.
But when they have a day off by default, it's an unpaid day off.
The way I play the game is with the career version I made PTO3. Then it takes only 3 workdays before the sim has a day Paid Time Off.
With this mod the sim goes to work every day even if the flag is not set to work that day.
So my sim has to go to work for six days in a row for starters, but then can have at least every weekend off and being paid. I just don't want my sim to have unpaid time off.

Screenshot
As you can see in the screenshot: It's Saturday. Normally Rhonda doesn't have to work (unpaid time off), but the carpool will arrive. Rhonda can still call in sick or take a Paid Time Off (if available).

I tested this thoroughly (+50 simsdays in +5 households) with a lot of downloads (+12,000) and there are no conflicts.

Warnings and issues
Of course a global mod does always come with some issues.
It will most likely conflict with any mod that changes the BHAV "Function - Does Sim Work Today?" 'cause that's the only BHAV found in this mod.
This mod is made by borrowing the code made by whoward69's mod Duvet Days.
It most likely will conflict with that mod.
I recommend to use the Hack Conflict Detection Utility found here: http://www.leefish.nl/mybb/showthread.php?tid=2063

If you notice any conflicts, please, let me know so I can add that mod to the list.

Thank you's
I'd like to thank both Whoward69 and Gummilutt at MTS.
Whoward69 because he gave permission to alter his mod and to use it to create this.
And Gummilutt because she explained to me how to find the correct BHAV and how to alter it to make this work. She also warned me for the conflicts it might cause.

  1. Is it possible to change look of flags so they will be set to work everyday? I know it's just little detail but I'm a big perfectionist :) and I'd love to see a visual reflection of what this mod actually do.

  2. No, that's not possible.
    You can do that in SimPE, but it has to be done for every career seperatly.
    That's the whole point of this global mod not having to that for every career seperatly.
    If you don't reupload the careers (at least when their mine) then you can do it for your own game.
