"Only interested in remote only jobs" is a somewhat misleading phrase.
All other things being equal, I'd definitely prefer a remote job, or at least one that afforded some reasonable flexibility.
That said, I'd take a job with less flexible conditions for a significant boost in pay that makes up for the hour commute each way, and extra expenses such as transportation and lunch.

Imagine you're an employer, now you have to give people a pay increase AND spend a lot of physical offices. Those critical water-cooler discussions warrant it though.
