This is why I refuse hybrid or on location working as an office worker: I'm not getting paid for the commute. Fuck that. (Of course, it's also a waste of time to be in the office as it's impossible to concentrate, when you have some sales people loudly talking into their phones right opposite you as you're trying to get some though work done)
If you need to do something for work that you would not otherwise do it’s part of the job and should be compensated. At least that has been my attitude with any company trips or events and going to the office.
