I shoot with zoom lenses because it enables me to shoot full length, 3/4 length and close-ups without having to move more than a few feet in any direction. Trying to get all those different views with a standard 85mm for instance would be a pain in the ass because you would have to backup for the full length shoots and then come way in for the closeups and by the end of the day - you'd be freak'n exhausted from running around so much.
One of my biggest peeves is seeing content shooters who shoot 20 shots from the same position. Then they switch positions and shoot 20 more shots...and then switch again and shoot 20 more shots. Clients hate this stuff. By utilizing a zoom lens, I can get much more variety in the shots without running myself ragged
