So I have a character from Hong Kong. I want him to be involved in software piracy.
The problem is that I'm really not sure what having this "job" would mean for his lifestyle. Like, if I were writing a professor, I'd have the idea that they get up, teach a class or two, spend some time doing office hours, maybe work on their latest research a bit, etc. If I were writing a convienience store clerk, I know they'd get up, go to work, ring people up, etc.
I have no idea what exactly a software pirate is going to get up and do in the morning to make a few bucks.
Help with this, or even just help figuring out a better search string for Google, would be much loved!
