If the position can’t be done remotely, DON’T LIST IT AS REMOTE

Just a brief rant, as I've been job hunting the last couple of days. The last couple of years have really put me in a mindset of never wanting to have to work in an office (or store, or what have you) ever again. Anything I'm qualified for, I'm qualified to do remotely. So, naturally, I'm filtering my job search to show me only remote jobs. It seems like every third or fourth job posting indicates that it's remote, but then describes job duties that simply cannot be done remotely – for example, receiving shipments, picking and packing outgoing shipments, PHYSICALLY DELIVERING packages… How hard is it for these people to put up accurate job listings? If my duties will require my physical presence to complete, THEN IT ISNT FUCKING REMOTE THEN, IS IT?
