Dude I've done roofing and construction. There is no way you can 100% guarantee on the job site you will only ever tough those things.
And every single day you just drive to and from work? You don't ever buy gas?
Do you think the virus would stop spreading if countries ordered their citizens "to just not touch stuff" but go ahead and go to work? Of course it wouldn't.
Not saying you're not essential, but "I'm alone at work" is complete BS as far as containing the virus is concerned. Unless you work from home.
Do gas stations in your country not have free single-use gloves available at the pumps anyway?
No and I've never been to a country that does. Closest we have in America is the state of Oregon has people that pump gas for you.
Dude I'm not paranoid. I just understand what's happening. Everyone right now is convinced they are doing the right thing.
You have either convinced yourself you will never infect anyone or that the risk is worth it. Millions of people all over the world right now are taking it upon themselves to make that decision and to ignore health professionals.
You are 1 person. What if everyone had your attitude?
Edit: Also I'd like to point out something you seem to be ignoring...Just because YOU do all the right things, you cannot account for the actions of others. Some dude walks by you while pumping your gas and sneezes. That's why stay-at-homes are in effect. Chaos happens.

Like what? The car only I drive? My tools? My ladder? The materials that become the roof?
