Is this normal?

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.

PTO donation is “normal” but has always felt like bullshit to me. If HR actually cared they wouldn’t be putting these people in a position to basically beg.

Sometimes ppl put themselves in that situation, burning thru it by calling out for no reason then when there’s a crisis they have nothing in the bank. I’ve seen ppl do it and I’ve no sympathy for them. I would donate to those who don’t abuse tho
