people tend to sort problems out in a calm, professional way
Exactly. It's not entirely conflict-free in my office, either, but when there are conflicts, people are honest about them and they get sorted out quickly, usually in a friendly way. After the tense passive-aggressive gossip mill of my last office, this definitely feels like a trade up.
Yay for getting lucky in the office stakes!
