At work when management said due to iranian drone strikes and sirens we are supposed to go to bomb shelter rather than straight home, in the beginning of this conflict they said we are allowed to work from home later they said work from home is no longer allowed , when i said to my dad it’s unfair that we are not allowed to go home, he said

they aren’t paying you for free, others are also in similar condition what’s the big deal?

is that right or wrong? Or am i just over reacting

I am asking because when i told this to my friend he freaked out and said 'wtf are you doing bro run from that company!'

Is your friend working in the same area/industry as you? if so he will have a better feel for whether it's "normal" than anyone here! That said, if you would feel safer at home than in the shelter and you can work from home effectively, then I think you should just work from home, and if they fire you, they fire you. If you gotta be there to do your job right I understand why they'd want you there, but you should think about whether it's worth it to you!
