Is anyone else having this problem?

I will finish an event with five stars and then leave and get a call from Maria or Simon or whoever and I will go meet with someone or get a new job and then leave the game to wait for my energy to recharge. Then when I go back into the game a couple of hours later, it's like none of that has happened and I ended up missing the end of that last event so I only get three or four stars and when I leave I get the same call and new job or whatever as before!
