Started my new job today. They just told me the "remote" position is actually only remote on Fridays. I'm sick

I accepted this job 3 weeks ago specifically because the listing said "Remote" and in both interviews they confirmed "yes, this is a remote position."

I show up for day one orientation and the HR person goes "Okay so just to clarify the remote policy, you'll be in office Monday through Thursday, and Fridays you can work from home."

I'm like "Wait, what? The job posting said remote and everyone told me this was a remote role."

She looks confused and pulls up something on her computer. "Oh, all our positions are hybrid now. We updated the policy last month. Four days in office, one day remote."

I literally got rid of my car because I wouldn't need to commute. I have a dog at home that I can't leave alone 9 hours a day.

I told her this is not what was discussed and she just shrugged and said "Well you can talk to your manager but this is company policy now."

So I'm sitting here on day one realizing this is essentially an office job with one work from home day.

I feel completely deceived. How is this legal? The offer letter I signed says "remote position" doesn't that mean something?

I don't even know what to do. Do I quit on day one? Do I try to stick it out? I can't afford to be unemployed again but I also can't do this commute every day.

Has anyone had a job completely change the terms after you already accepted? I feel so trapped right now.

Suggestions for movie and documentary with accurate representation of Indigenous resistance leaders such as Louis Riel, Gerónimo and Buffalo Calf Road Woman?

I want to archive (and learn from) these media because I think they will be important education for youth generations on Indigenous resistance in Turtle Island and beyond. Thank you comrades.

Kwame Ture on Cuba, Vietnam, Haiti, Civil War, LA protests and the importance of organizing

Insane how he was able to educate so much in just 2 hours video, in fact Parenti lectures seem too tame for Kwame Ture who equally knows how to involve the listeners into his lecture while spitting real history about anti-imperialist and anti-colonial struggles. The rest of the lecture of his FIU speech in 1992.
