They already were. Before the pandemic, the compensation for commute was part of the salary. And you were expected to come to the office every day. It was your choice to move 2 hours away from the office instead of having 15min commute.

I got PhD and I am still not sure how I feel. It took me 6 years, a lot of doubts and putting my life on hold. You never know if you will finish your PhD. In fact, 50% drop out. Imagine spending 4 years of your life and then quitting with l
