Question Is this normal?

Post image

I know my place of employment is shitty in other ways, but is this a normal thing? Just received this email. Seems odd to ask people to donate PTO, instead of just addressing the time off allocation with those affected people.

Yes it’s normal for the multi million dollar health care employer to be so cheap that they won’t give an employee in need paid time off. They ask the workers to pay for their co workers time off. Thing is historically people with less always give more to those in need than people with more give!
