No, they're not.

You go to different places and different people, every single day. That's 100% less repetitive compared to sitting at home or going to the office to see the same people.

As for the tasks themselves, it was merely an example, but even for this example I disagree. My brother-in-law basically does all of these things, both for private citizens and industry and comes across a wide array of different situations.

I'm not saying it's absolute perfection, no job is. But I stand by my point that it has a series of very meaningful advantages: far healthier, more social, direct impact of your work, no cognitive overload, no politics.
