      Programming and fields like it can be done remotely. Manufacturing cannot be done remotely (like you said). I work in a semiconductor fab and my job is most definitely not compatible with remote work. I would like to transition to a job where I can be remote though, at some point.

      I work in engineering, for 3 years we haven’t gone into office. There are in person things when needed, but the majority of design and engineering time is a solitary task.

      Yeah for jobs like that it seems odd for the engineers to not want to see the prototypes.

      Seems like people like that are in the wrong profession for sure.
