Very few writers write jobs well (I'm not counting 'writer' as a job).
In the 19th century I reckon only four did: Conrad and Melville know what working as a sailor is like, Trollope understands bureaucracy and politics, Hardy has a feel for rural work.
Zola does a lot of research of external detail but never gives the impression he understands what working in the mines or fields or a department store is actually like for the person doing it. Tolstoy is delusional. Most were wise enough to skirt abound the matter

Country Doctor--simple but good-natured

I dunno but my dishwasher works. Sometimes you have to smack her around a few times and she gets the job done nicely.
Teste meter.
Top 3 traits of writing smart characters:
Make the character someone who posts on IQfy.
Also they should leave full spaces between each line.
Also they should have a hyperfixation on "being smart" or "being intellectual".
i mean, one that absolutely does not want to make any more money than they are currently making commensurate to their responsibility
