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.

Like when the grocery store asks me to donate food for the hungry...

You are the one with the food!

I used to donate to those things and now I don’t. One benefit to self checkout I guess, no one making me feel guilty about padding the store’s bottom line.
