Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

I can recommend public service if you can swing it.

You mean to work for public services? I am currently doing that and sadly might have ended up in one of the not-so-nice ones.

There are a lot of people here who have been here since forever and feel the need to exercise their authority everyday to the "new person" and see everything the new person does well as a threat to their own position.

But yeah it for sure is more relaxing than in private companies. Took a big paycut to work here because I thought it's better to feel less strained after work.

I've heard in general that public services are better as employers though!
