>As a software engineer I am working a lot with my computer. Therefore I must be working with things! But... I am just as much working with my soft skills. Scrum retros, talking to stakeholders, discussions on design with fellow engineers, testing with end-users. Some days I don't spend even a minute working with "things".

Yes but did you join the profession for the Scrum meetings or for the programming?

Third option: money

(speaking for myself, it was programming; never thought would get paid so much to do what I already love doing)
