This is the best answer. In the U.S., something over 2/3 of the populations works non-remote, and always has. The "everything is remote now" perspective is a very professional-class one. So, if you work for a place where most of the jobs by their nature cannot be remote, it will not be weird to want to be at work, it will be standard.

One bonus is that a lot of these places need IT help, and you may be appreciated more. Plus, a greater diversity of backgrounds among the people you work with.

Agreed. I am also at a robotics company (see profile) and most of our staff only had a brief time at home and have been working onsite for almost all of 2021. I joined half way through the pandemic and was surprised to find that I was very happy to return to the office.

Our challenge, as I'm sure you've guessed, is finding smart, motivated people like yourself who would prefer to be in the office. We are finding that many people, even those local to our market, would prefer to WFH.
