I am not the demographic you are looking for answers from, but I will note that if you are introverted or socially challenged in some way, being removed from 40+ hours per week of social friction at the office can actually improve your ability to connect socially at times and places when you want that to happen because your internal quota for social stuff was not long ago used up and burned to the ground, making yet one more conversation start with getting on your very last nerve and go downhill from there.
