Find a job that is (remote) pairing?
I have seen hardware shops that are eerily quiet and sparsely populated, so being in an office is not a precursor for social interaction.

Even if pairing isn't something you're doing constantly, I do think that for many teams and jobs, it's useful _sometimes_. But when the norm was for everyone to be in office, it was easy to start and have a solid high-bandwidth session -- just both pull up to the same desk. I find voice + screenshare still misses a bunch of cues, lag is of course disruptive, and the switch between who has control of the screen etc is clunky, so one person tends to drive for a long time.

This is not wrong though.
