Why are beautician, teacher and OL the only jobs you’re allowed to have in shoujo manga?
You can also be a florist or work in a restaurant. Maybe a nurse too, if it's a hospital romance. :)
TBH, lot of women in Japan (in the past especially), had short temporary careers, where they transferred from their job to being home mommies in their thirties at latest and many bosses actually expect/ed this. Which is why many of those who just wanted to keep working ran into a glass ceiling.
