At least you chopped his feet off. He won't be walking away from this if his legs can't reach the ground.

Maybe if you pay half the extortion amount he'll give you a reach around.

I think that's what happening is this: These characters are hurt. When their health is below -40 they are considered to be too hurt to respond to text messages. Characters recover health in one of three ways: by going to the clinic to get treatment, by staying home from work and by a weekly health check update. What I didn't realize till just now is that non-club employees, like your PI and Sally don't stay home when they are hurt. Only club employees do that. And because they have regular jobs that cause them to work Mon-Fri 9-5 they can never go to the clinic to get treatment. So the only way they recover health is via the slower method of the weekly health check. Which may take months for someone to recover from a bad injury.
So the bug is that non-club employees also need to stay at home when they are hurt so that they can recover health faster. So I'll put in a fix for that. These characters will stay home when sick and instead of recovering health when staying home from work I'll change it so that they recover health when they sleep. This should reduce the chances of people taking too long to recover.
For the record, Sally's and Felix workplaces are marked "none" or "away" to indicate that they are working in some non-MC reachable location. I'm not sure how the unemployed sick person ended up in the cafe. They are not supposed to roam about in that state, unless they were brought by a scene that didn't check their health status (e.g. she was the stalker on someone else's date).

Lily eventually showed up but she was missing for quite a bit longer than Felix despite staying at home to heal. Is it likely she got hurt badly enough to need more than four months home rest? (BTW, does the MC also heal from mobster fights more quickly by staying in the club and just passing time and sleeping between visits to the clinic?)
As well as the lack of response from the formerly missing person in the cafe there was this ...
... which is definitely some sort of bug.
But whether it's bugs or hidden emergent narratives it detracts from playability.
You get no feedback as to why or for how long an NPC isn't responding, leaving you with the option of either texting them repeatedly for what can be months or forgetting about them until they show up again some day. What's more, my guess is the disabled unemployed NPCs are using up slots that would normally be taken by potential employees, making it harder to fill vacancies, especially in the early game. As I've pointed out, sometimes more than half the unemployed NPCs can be failing to respond to text messages at any time of day despite having neutral opinions of the MC.
So yeah, there may be a reason for it to happen, but as that reason (and its likely duration) is opaque to the player and beyond his influence it's effectively 'luck' again having a major impact on gameplay.

Has anyone had a problem where they couldn't call the drug dealer. I have tried to get a meeting, text, where are they, and meet up but each time keeps saying "no response". I have tried multiple days, skipped days, reloaded game, and exit game but nothing seems to change the response. Thank you

I just had this happen to me with a city commissioner. I'd never tried to interview her for a job, so the issue isn't related to job candidates.

Have you had non-texting interactions with the CC then tried texting again?
Appointments with the Doctor are getting scheduled for the same time as job interviews.
Doctor should take precedent, especially as there's a prompt saying 'do you want to go there now?'.

I actually never got the drug dealer to work. (Or the private investigator for that matter). For me they are just two random guys roaming the streets (though it is pretty rare that they leave home it seems)

First person to 0 energy or -100 health loses. Tie goes to the defender (which in the case is you). I may fudge the health of the winner to avoid this situation though.
I already addressed the issue with the no response that you pointed out a few days back. Sorry I didn't make that clear that I was doing that. If an NPC is tired, hurt or asleep they won't respond to texts. Note also that club employees typically sleep in the mornings. Non-club employees typically sleep at night. If you text during those times, they are less likely to respond. If they are at work and they are not your employees they are also way less likely to respond.
Should an NPC take 4 months to heal? No, but that's the bug I pointed out yesterday. The MC can't stay home from work, so no, the MC only recovers health by going to the clinic as well a the standard weekly update. But as I pointed out yesterday as well, I'm changing that so that it happens whey they sleep not when they stay home from work.
See the discussion above with Magister Crudi. He's having the same issue with the PI. If your drug dealer got beat up and it's hurt he won't be responding to your requests. And because of a bug he may stay hurt longer than he should. Working on a fix for that bug.
They both should trigger back to back and you should be able to do both. Which one goes first is probably the first one that got scheduled, but not sure. It may be random. All these forced events should have a prompt asking if you want to do it and give you the opportunity to say no (parties, amateur contests, movie scene filming, training sessions, etc.). Non-scheduled events (like club disasters, mob visits, etc) do not have a prompt to avoid them, but those run after the scheduled ones.
If you choose to attend the interview, it cancels the Doctor appointment. The same thing happens with the cult meetings.
The choices are to attend the interview and not interact with anyone beyond the meeting event, or piss off the interviewee by cancelling the interview.
Going to the interview does not allow you to return to the meeting and pick up where you left off because the interview passes time and removes you from the meeting location. It should not occur until the previous event is complete. I'd fire my secretary if they kept double-booking me like that.
The interview is always granted after the appointment / meeting is locked in as it occurs within 3 days.
'Do you want to go to the Doctor appointment?'
Yes
*Arrive at the Doctor*
'Person X is waiting in your office for their interview, do you want to attend?'

Was tooling around and found that I could initiate (or at least pay for) upgrades to rival club rooms.
I've just experienced this myself.
Does the satisfaction pick back up again if you simply reverse the latest change, or does it have to go through a new growth period where the public has to warm up to you again?

Just released version 1.01. This mostly addresses a few issues that have been pointed out recently, in particular with how prices and satisfaction interact as well as the issue with characters not healing in a timely manner.

Ok, I forgot that the clinic appointment does not trigger the get treatment interaction automatically, so yeah, that's a problem. You can then just go to the interview and then come back to the clinic later or the next day. There's no penalty for postponing the doctor appointment (other than perhaps pushing back by one day when you are healthy). But will look to see if I can find a way to fix it.
With the cult meeting, parties and amateur contest that use up two time periods, yeah, that's a problem. You can go to the first part of each but you will lose access to the second part. The second part is not required, it was added to create more opportunities to interact in those settings. And I don't see finding a solution to that issue. You will just have to decide what you rather do (when you can choose, other times you won't be able to).
They need a college degree.
Nice find! That's been there for a while. I'll put in a check for that.
Should be fixed on the update I just published. Satisfaction would reverse immediately. But fame will need to recover bit by bit. So if you kept it at a 0 satisfaction for a week, your fame took a big hit. When you reverse the price, the satisfaction would recover immediately while fame would take a while to come back. Longer than it took to go down, most likely.

I thought so but my sister does have it and I can't make her a manager. The first sister available from the start.

Oh I forgot that those also have an age requirement (which 26 for the business mgr and 24 for the other 2). There's also a lewdness requirement but that's like -60.
