In manga, the adult characters always have the same jobs. No, in dramas, cartoons and comics too. In almost every cartoon I ever watched the family's father worked in a office. The soap operas always have an executive, a doctor, a model... Always the same. Manga are not different. There are lots of teachers, lawyers and businessmen. In josei and seinen the protagonist (or his/her friends) works in some kind of store (usually, convenience stores) and, sometimes, carrying boxes.
I'd like to see people in different works. It doesn't need to be the focus of the story, but it has to be mentioned or showed at least once.
The cliché jobs, for me, are lawyer, businessman, actor, singer, teacher (middle and high school), writers, salesman, host, prostitute, model.
I have saw at least once nurse (in not hentai manga), doctor, architect, designer, fashion designer, ceramics artist, mangaka, scientist, teacher (college and primary school), cook/chef, detective.
I want different stuff. Like... psychologist (and psychiatrist, even that one counts as a doctor but anyway), biologist, nutritionist, historian, librarian, etc.
You can also recommend stuff with the ones that I've seen at least once too. Or it'll be too difficult. Even not-exactly-jobs will do. Such as nuns (there is a category), idols (I don't like it), military (somewhat common, but still nice) and yakuzas (too cliché). And really rare jobs (as astronaut) also are nice.
I don't mind yaoi and yuri. I prefer if it is not hentai (I mean, just sex. I don't mind hetero sex if the story has a plot). And yes, I know some jobs have categories. The "different" ones, doesn't.
(I hope it's ok and I'm getting tired of apologizing for my bad English. Oh, well. XD Sorry again!)
