What kind of work lets you get away with zero social communication and interaction for the entirety of 8 hours a day? Even in the "coding" example, there is a fair bit of collaboration in software development.

Even assuming this kind of job exists, your corporate overlords will push for mandatory 8hr day work + 8hr sleep work and only pay you 4 hours for it.
