I am pretty introverted + slightly autistic (not self diagnosed). I do a lot of customer facing work too, which I would never endure when not working remotely. But working remote means I can just turn off when I'm not feeling so great. Presenting is a lot easier... Approaching people, also, a lot easier. Just send them a message on slack/teams/discord. Before that I would have had to muster the courage to talk to certain people. It's a lot easier to onboard as well, given the change in environment is much smaller.
I feel SO lucky that I just happened to apply for this job when COVID and remote work started.
I think this remote work has equalized the playing field in terms of attractiveness & height aswell, as those qualities are far less visible when interviewing remotely. Wouldn't be surprised if we see the average height of high paid workers decline due to this.
