I should actually be working 8h a day, but most of it is spend not working. If I’m honest I’m probably working more like 3h a day even though I enjoy my job.

I’m not sure you could be more condescending if you tried.
It’s not condescending. Some jobs are about using your brain, some are about using your body. Some are about both. Software dev is not about both.
Yes, it is condescending as you belittle the ‘brain’ role for the aforementioned jobs in retail, hospitality, healthcare, etcetera.
I don’t think they were trying to belettile it. It’s not to say that you don’t need to use your brain or solve problems in a factory or in a shop. I think what they were trying to say is that those jobs are often quite a lot of physical tasks that take time whereas programming is nothing physical but almost entirely problem solving
I didn’t belittle anything. Some jobs are more mentally taxing, some are more physically taxing. I’m not claiming one is “better” than the other.
