For tactful advice, B2 German prefers indirect, hypothetical phrasing over the bare imperative. an deiner / Ihrer Stelle + Konjunktiv II projects yourself into the other's situation: « An deiner Stelle würde ich kündigen. » Impersonal recommendations use es wäre ratsam / sinnvoll / besser, dass … (verb final) or with zu + Infinitiv: « Es wäre ratsam, früher zu schlafen. » sollte (Konjunktiv II of sollen) gives gentle 'should' advice: « Du solltest mehr Pausen machen. »
