Are all accountants....?

When you start searching in Google you may have noticed that it often offers to complete your search string. 

In effect the system recognises and offers you the rest of what other people have searched for even if the words are in a different order. 

Here are some of the suggestions Google offered me recently by reference to the few words I typed in each case: 

Are all accountants.... 
.... the same?
.... boring?
..... alcoholics?

Why are most accountants.... 
.....female? (a surprisingly common question it seems, possibly related to the film industry where the accountants named in the credits are indeed invariably female)
....quitting?

Why don't accountants....
....make much money?
....have unions?
....get paid overtime?

Can accountants....
....certify documents?
....sign passports?
....get rich?
....work from home?
....be replaced by AI?
....have tattoos?
