After years of experience I came to the conclusion..
The more you work in a niche tech field the less you find toxic people..
In short , work where 'getting in' is very common.. the more s hole u find..
I will come back with more facts and figures 😜..
Fish any comments....

People in popular fields mostly pursue them because it's a popular trend with guaranteed money and status not because they're genuinely passionate about it. They go through all the difficult exams interviews and work hours because they want to win the rats race not because they want to actually work on something meaningful. Meanwhile mostly those in niche fields are genuine about their passion or interest.

Also, a lot of those in popular STEM fields don't focus at all on the social sciences and languages they are taught and look down on them and the people persuing them. So they never learned the ability to be a sensible human beings who actually focus on their surroundings and people and contribute positively to the society lol
