Yes, they can complain - and should. We all should. If there’s no real reason to commute, if the actual work doesn’t require it, then we should push back on this.

“How it’s always been” is a lousy reason to keep doing something if there’s a better way.

The pandemic forced employers to allow WFH so they could keep the money spigots flowing. We learned that it isn’t really necessary to burn additional fossil fuels and contribute to pollution and donate commute time for free.

It’s entirely logical that workers are complaining about a unnecessary constraint that costs them time, money & restricts where they can live.
