What was okay, & what kind of work uses a leather couch (outside of a psychologist, maybe - who I'd think would have no problem affording a ride)?

    My work has a couch, it’s not leather but we have one. I’m a software engineer at a 6 person company. In fact I’ve had many jobs with couches, mainly in call centres.

    Saw that when I was a kid in Europe, but virtually never here in the US.

    From the outside looking in it’s like you (America) doesn’t want its staff to be comfortable. We have seats at our checkouts but didn’t see that in America either.

    America is owned by control freaks who think accommodating people makes them "soft" and lazy, and therefore making less money for said owners than they theoretically could were they operating like the perfect robots the owners would prefer to have.
