Civil service doesn't come with the pay or the glamour of tech jobs, but it offers the stability that college students say they want.

My British family pronounces it "ah-mee-tah," and my Indian family pronounces it "ah-mee-tha." I'm comfortable with either of those pronunciations, but many Americans pronounce it as "uh-mee-duh," which I really dislike. Saying my name with the "duh" sound may not sound wrong to some, but I feel that it makes my name sound clunky and old-school. It's helped me learn to advocate for myself and be aware of whether I'm saying other's names correctly.
