Default Time Doesn't Progress, Retail vs Wholesale, Have Manager but Can't Check In
I forgot a couple of questions.....
  1. When my sims goes to the pets store (leaving the family at home), then returns home at the end of the day, no time has passed!!! I mean, he spent all day at the the store, so shouldn't it also be evening on the home lot??
  2. When you first select items to sell in the store, are you supposed to use the retail tool or wholesale tool??? It doesn't seem like I'm making a lot of money, but my store is always busy!! When is each appropriate?
  3. Also, I appointed a manager, and told him to 'Mind the Store,' the store is never open, unless my sim is there!!! If I call to check in with the business from home, I get a message saying that my business does not have a manager, and asking who am I trying to call again!! HELP!!!
Thanks Very Much!!!

It's always that way when you go to a community lot: time hasn't passed on your home lot. Think about it that way: if Mrs Doe goes to a community lot to meet a friend and comes back in the evening... what will the members of her family have done in the meantime?

When you first select items to sell in the store, are you supposed to use the retail tool or wholesale tool??? It doesn't seem like I'm making a lot of money, but my store is always busy!! When is each appropriate?
Retail: Click on your objects for sale with that tool, they'll become yellow in buy mode and your customers will try to buy them.
Wholesale: Choose this mode to buy objects at a cheaper price, they'll also automatically be marked as "for sale".

Also, I appointed a manager, and told him to 'Mind the Store,' the store is never open, unless my sim is there!!! If I call to check in with the business from home, I get a message saying that my business does not have a manager, and asking who am I trying to call again!! HELP!!!
