There is a job called "Computer operators"? Isn't that just, Everybody?
Think blue collar IT. In the old days, the grunt who watched mainframe batch jobs and fiddled with printers. If you see grumpy old people wearing overalls or non-khaki pants in a government or bank datacenter, you've spotted the operators. Sometimes help desk types get categorized this way.
Yoga instructor is missing. That's pretty much the ideal wife (lots of free time, unreasonably fit), and I'd like to know what job to obtain in order to be pursued by yoga instructors. And DJ is missing. Which prevents us from confirming the hypothesis that DJ's do better than JD's. http://longorshortcapital.com/short-jds.htm Most men seek the JD to “make a lot of money” which is really just a euphemism for “power ov…

This is really a hard graph to follow. There's probably a reasonable chord diagram arrangement that could help us filter through the data, but perhaps really this is too unwieldy for even a chord diagram due to the relatively high number of node vertexes to associate together.

As far as I can tell most groups seem to marry Elementary school teachers
I think that's a class thing. Auditors, teachers and RNs are all solid middle class, female heavy gigs. Teachers and RNs have the added bonus of an awesome schedule.

It's the person who works in the "cage" in a casino, i.e. exchanges money for chips and vice versa.
It seems odd that there are enough of them to warrant their own classification as opposed to a general gambling or even recreation classification.
Most interesting connection I saw: "Eligibility Interviewers, Government Programs" "Unemployed, with no work experience in last 5 years"

For me it was some of these jobs not having heterosexual lines in both directions. "Electrical Power-Line Installers and Repairers", "Pipelayers, Plumbers, Pipefitters, and Steamfitters", and "Welding, Soldering, and Brazing Workers" don't have any female -> male lines at all if I'm reading the charts right, just male -> female and female -> female. "Miscellaneous Office Support Workers", "Receptionists and Information Clerks", and "Preschool and Kindergarten Teachers" are the reverse.
It makes sense given that gay people are more likely to be gender nonconforming and all of those jobs are gendered very strongly, but still interesting to see the extent of it.

Software developers seem to be incredibly endogamous to me.
I guess I should stop using Tinder/OkCupid, and start going to teacher meetings
Its really weird but it does seem like most of my peers either married other people in software development or teachers. No idea why.
My SO is going into teaching, at least temporarily for a few years, in a medium-COL city. She'll be making $55k-$65k in base salary, depending on if she teaches 10 months or 12 months out of the year, plus full retirement benefits, and they also provided her with enough scholarships just for taking the job that she has no college debt at all. Meanwhile I know engineering graduates (not necessarily software) who started in roughly the same range, with considerable debt, not as much stability, no retirement beyond a 401(k) with a pitiful match, and just a week or two off per year.
