Are you finding your position interesting?

I'm partly thinking about going back to synchrotron light sources, and partly thinking of trying to develop a teaching career, though not totally sure how to do that.

The position is my dream job but not all my colleagues are so easy to work with. So a lot of my time is spent arguing which is very exhausting... But at least I have a supportive boss.
Maybe you should choose based on what type of working environment you want?

That's good to hear.

I definitely want to be careful about my working environment.
I've also not wanted to work fully remotely if possible. So I've been thinking of options for organizations here in Colorado.
Still, I might reconsider as I start to look more seriously.

I have found it to be more complicated now. For people with families it's good that there are now more options to work from home but I really miss on-site group meetings, joint lunches and coffee breaks together with my colleagues. I wish there was more effort in keeping that despite hybrid working.

You're in Berlin, right? You could look into cohousing or other intentional communities there.
A number of people here work remotely, but participate in person with their neighbors.

Yes, but in the outskirts where the options are fewer. I considered cohousing for a while but all options I found just had a tiny one-room and I wanted a space which really feels like mine that I have the power to decide over because I haven't had that for a long time.

Sometimes I look at envy at those retirement homes were people have a proper own apartment but there is still community areas with daily activities. I wish that was more common for all ages.
