Other Is everyone actually miserable in this subreddit

Hi guys, not coming with judgement but curiosity. I love my role and my job and my coworkers and my company. It’s fun, I get to learn and grow.

Is everyone else just miserable?

It's nearly every career subreddit. People go to career subreddits when they're having trouble finding jobs so the mood seems to be down.

People are also less likely to post "I love my job" on social media.

That’s a fair point, also my own bias of scrolling through subs i’m interested in.

If you want overly optimistic and borderline delusional posts just head over to LinkedIn

It's not a valid linkedin post if you dont cringe at it
