Class bias in Occupations
Most of the occupations are middle class. Where are the electricians, plumbers, mechanics, carpenters, etc.?

I think there is indeed some bias there. The jobs included are hardly the most common ones. The ones you include seems to biased towards building craft though ;-). Anyway here is a short list of the most common construction jobs.
- Elektriker (electrician)
- Rörmokare (plumber)
- Mekaniker (mechanic)
- Snickare (carpenter)
- Målare (painter)
- Plåtslagere (tin-smith ?)
- Sotare (chimney sweep)
- Murare (mason)
- Arkitekt (architect)
- Bygnadsingenjör (structural engineer)

They can't really include them all... think of all the occupations there are. There will always be some left out.
Maybe they should include more from a broad spectrum of classes (or perhaps add another lesson or two) but there's always Google translate to find out more :-).
