Remote ones could be fired easier as well, just a mail and you are done. However, remote work makes things a bit harder for the employer, not for the employee. The "feeling lonely" and what not parts are not important considering you can do so much more. In 99% of the cases for jobs, where you work 8 hours a day, you do not actually need to be there for 8 hours.

It means you can't really make yourself do something productive. Whereas, at home, when you work, if you want to work or have some work then you work, but when you don't have any work, you can easily either do something fun meanwhile, or you can even work on your own business. I know a guy who worked for a foreign company making games, and while working, he made his own game, and became wealthy, 10+ million dollars. All done, during his free time, while working.
