If my workplace were to rescind the work from home stuff, I'd refuse to go to office and split my time between doing my actual job and shopping around for a new workplace.

That's what I did and they only wanted us back two days a month. Even did the interviews on company time.

I think that's completely fair. I was hired on the basis that it'd be a full remote position, with the occasional travel (like once a year, if that). If they randomly decided to have me go twice a month, I'd probably look around too.

It'd mean that twice a month I'd have to spend 4 hours commuting, hopefully on company time, as well as find someone who could sit my dog for the day. Honestly would like to have the work pay for that too.
