That's the one thing that frustrates me the most about these games, too. Minutes fly by like seconds, but the Sims move in realtime! There's never enough time to actually do anything in the game! So I keep my Sims unemployed and just cheat.
Been playing The Sims since 2001; in all those years I have never seen anyone release a timescale mod for any of the games. So when do play, most of my time is spent in Build/Buy mode.
They move in realtime, but they finish a meal in 10 seconds. Bathroom breaks and baths also take ~10 seconds. Not to mention that clothes changing is a single spinning jump. Wish it was that easy in real life
