Do you know the reasons why people (including you) don't want in-office jobs? Now multiply these reasons by 10.

Instead of 1 hour commute, have an airplane travel or a couple hours drive. Instead of hours in a cubicle, have an hotel. And now add more expenses and crappy food.

Sure, the "social interactions" in a pub might be more pleasant than the "water-cooler side chat" but they won't be much more productive.

Socializing is overrated.
