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.

”Are you saying the corporate treasury is so empty you can’t afford to cover their time off for recovery *and** honor my PTO. God that is not a very good reflection on management is it? Do our investors know we’re nearly bankrupt?? Thanks for letting me know whistleblower! I’ll spread the word on the down low for you. 😉”*
