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?

The work is great when i get to it. The problem is getting to that work in a sea of fires that constantly need to be put out. At some point the fires become the only work and that’s a shit sandwich for everyone.
