'No interesting questions except cliche questions?

'Where are you from? Single or married? What do you do for living? Where do you live?.....'

Are there no more interesting questions in order to get to know someone except these boring cliche questions, which absoluetly does not give away anything about one's personality except some superficial judgements.

Cliche questions are boring!

I've never figured out why asking what someone does for a living is a good question anyway. Most people don't like their jobs, nor do they do what they want to do, so why do we base our impression of their character based on that? Like, if you base my personality on the fact that I write instruction manuals for a living, you'd think I was the most boring person on the planet.
