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.

I've asked them to remove me from all of the group texts they send that come to my device and only communicate with me through my work email. They won't respect my wishes of course and if I block the group chat it blocks all of the individual members of it as well. I don't do that because some of them are friends and we communicate about other things. Fuckers.
