Brief Intro
This adds a 10-Level career similar to the one from the Sims 2: Seasons. It's based in the Criminal Hideout, due to lack of suitable locations. But the warehouse seems fit for some reason! This has been tested on Sunset Valley, Riverview and a custom world.

Beware, this career contains vast amounts of puns...

Requirements
You need to have twallan's NRaas Career Mod installed which can be found here. Whats good about this is, you can add as many careers as you want, as long as they're based on the same framework. Also, if any future patches breaks the scripting that loads the careers, twallan is so up to date, he'll fix it real fast!

This shouldn't conflict with Awesome or IndieStone, as the framework it is based on does not.
