I guess it does if you live in a shit country with a shit job.
I very much prefer to work in the office. First of all I don't have a dedicated office in my house, and I do not want to work in my living room.
I walk 20 minutes to the office and chat with my colleagues. I see no reason why not seeing your colleagues in person would make your life better.
If I need a day off, I take a day off. It happened plenty of times to me that the same day I get busy with something important and I'll just call the job and tell them I'm not going to work.
I imagine if your job is not like this then remote work is better. But you don't have to change your job for a job with remote work; you have to change your job for a better job.
shame we can't all live in the worker's paradise
