If you broaden it a little from job/hobby to living in the real setting of a movie, you’ll notice characters going places that make no sense at all. Like if it’s Seattle they might start a boating scene on Lake Union and ends up at Mercer Island, swinging by Alki beach on the way.
I’ve seen Americans start explaining how the geography in Spaghetti Westerns doesn’t make sense, so we in Europe have to go “oh, but you see, the film doesn’t take place in real America, it takes place in America of myth and legend.”
As a kid watching Miami Vice, except for a few external shots I was like “Umm… that’s not miami…”
And the few shots that were kind of just had Sonny and Rico walk-talking past buildings that were like eight blocks apart from each other in the same conversation
