yeah theres a high demand for nurses and sooner as well as the baby boomers age. i find the current nurse system really redundant, lots of paper pushing as well as very little each nurse does. a physical therpy nurse and occupational therapy nurse can be consolidated into 1 since both are real basic. as more baby boomers come into the picture then nursing companies would do something to consolidate the field so nurses does more work than travel.

Also, a bit unrelated...but is it just me...Or does it seem that Sims 3 just doesn't quite have the same charm as it used to have in Sims 2? Or even 1 for that matter? Will any of these expansions bring that charm back?
Answer
If you enjoy playing with careers or want your Sim to have the ability to be self-employed (writer, painter, gardener, etc.) or like the idea of being more involved with your Sim's actual work, then you would like Ambitions. It added many new professions and self-employment, and added new education career. You can follow your Sim on the job as firefighter, architect, stylist, spirit hunter, private investigator. It added a salon, fire station, inventions, junkyard, sculpting, and a consignment shop to sell your art and various other things. The time machine is an awesome invention!
If you enjoy playing with non-traditional Sims, Supernatural is an excellent EP that added fairies, witches, genies (if you have Pets), and werewolves; enhanced vampires and ghosts; and allowed selection of non-human Sims at creation. It also added a lunar cycle, some interesting new venues, alchemy skill, the ability to grind your own gemstones, the fortuneteller career (mystic and psychic branches), and a consignment shop that is open 24/7. EDIT: Since you have Late Night, when I got Supernatural, it gave me the option to opt out of the celebrity system and/or remove celebrities altogether, YAY! It also added several new cool recipes and plants like mushrooms, ghost chilis, and honey.
If you enjoy the family aspect of Sims and want that more enhanced, then Generations is good. It added the daycare profession, which your Sim does at home, and several new toys for the tots and children. It also added after-school activities, boarding schools, pranks, discipline, learning/teaching to drive, sleepovers, and teen parties while parents are away.
If you crave realistic weather, they did an excellent job with Seasons. It added seasons (of course lol), very realistic weather, new recipe pumpkin pie, community festivals, new parties, trick or treating, snowboarding, rollerskating, iceskating, flowers to pick for simoleons, slow dancing, online dating, egg hunts, kissing booths, eating contests, tanning, swimming in the ocean.
I'm not as enthusiastic about Pets or Showtime. But between the two, Pets is the much better. It adds wildlife (turtles, lizards, etc.) that you catch and keep or sell, cats & dogs & horses you raise from babies or adopt as adults, an equestrian center to do races and breed horses, a training field for racing and jumping horses, new dog and cat parks.
Showtime wasn't worth the money, IMO. It added three new professions that you basically have to "babysit" your Sim so they don't bomb on stage as they do their constant gigs, and after playing awhile, the stage performances are extremely repetitive. If you play more than one Sim, it's difficult to do that because you have to really keep on top of what the performer Sim does.
And IMO, no stuff pack is really worth the money. The 70s, 80s, 90s pack was especially disappointing. They barely added anything, and they had SO many possibilities that they just didn't bother with.
I'm looking forward to University Life (baristas, brewing teas, "herbs" [drugs], and a ton of new social things) but Island Paradise? I'm just about beside myself, lol, waiting for it to come out in June! Houseboats, speedboats, jet skis, traveling between islands, living in the middle of the *ocean* if you want and not tied to any land, ladders, fishing off the boats, scuba diving with (they promise) sea life and not a rabbit hole, snorkeling...
