I can’t work remote because sometimes I have to work on physical servers but when I am in the office, I am the only person in the building half the time so I mostly play games on my personal laptop.

I have no idea what office people do. From my research they sit in front of computers and write emails, frown at the occasional spreadsheet, and grow more irritated the more interaction they have to have with coworkers they don’t want to copulate with.
They also get evasive and defensive when you ask them what their job title means.
If they can get paid to forward emails and avoid social interaction from home, thermodynamically, that seems more efficient. To me, at least.

Worked on both sides, some people are just email coordinators but often times what’s actually happening in the office is planning. I’ve worked in manufacturing so the planning is forming contracts with suppliers for raw materials, planning the logistics of getting those raw materials from the supplier to the plant, scheduling time for PMs, scheduling people’s shifts to process the raw materials, negotiating with customers, planning the logistics of getting the finished goods to your customers, ensuring compliance with governing body’s, arbitrating employee grievances, ensuring that you’re meeting the requirements of the industrial insurance policy, develop improvements to the processes, ensure compliance with corporate, audit the systems for improvement, maintain health and safety, manage budgets for literally everything the company does, and that’s just off the top of my head. A good office in manufacturing at least isn’t noticeable because everything is done and ready for production when they need it.
