I recently watched Search:WWW and I really like the business aspect with the web portals. I usually watch stories about doctors and lawyers but I really want to watch shows that explore more careers I probably haven't heard of.

i would recommend where stars land, it's one of my favorites and it is about two airport workers who fall in love (i guess your classic romance cliche) but the job really stood out to me (i've seen search: www too) that's about all i can think of right now, will type more if i think of any! :)

37.5°C no Namida: The female lead works for a childcare agency that takes care of sick children while their parents are working.

Iron Ladies: All three female leads are high ranking employees of a cosmetics company.

Lupin No Musume: The female lead's family are professional thieves.

Natsuzora: A long show but highly recommended if you are interested in the history and/or process of animation. It delves into all the aspects: creating characters, storyboards, drawing cels, inking cels, coloring, voice acting, directing, etc.  A bonus is that you also see the different aspects of farm life in the beginning of the series as well.

Sweden Laundry: Female lead runs a laundromat.

My Mister kinda fits?

Also Kekkon Dekinai Otoko (ML is an aloof architect) - one of my fav jdramas.
