I'd wager that barrister, cook, librarian, sailor, and soldier are some of the most common ones.
I know I've used each of those in scenarios (or other adventures) I've written. Because some people choose Profession (and Craft & Perform) skills as their PFS characters' day jobs (or for flavor reasons), I think it makes sense to also allow them to use those skills. (With the caveat that there should usually be the option of using a more common skill, perhaps at a higher DC.)

I think that's a good approach to writing scenarios. When players see day-job skills come up in Society it reinforces the idea that taking those skills are viable options, and I also feel that having day-jobs helps promote character backstory and personality. I can't say I'm familiar with your writings (I've never looked too closely at authors, unfortunately); I guess I'll have to be on the lookout in the future!
