What do you guys think of this

My friend just sent me this e-mail from the company I used to work for regarding their holiday schedule. What would you do?

"SCF will be closed on Monday, December 24, 2012. However, it will not to be considered a paid holiday. As such, and in compliance with CT DOL laws, SCF requires all exempt (salaried, non-hourly) employees to use vacation (PTO) to cover the time off. If you do not have PTO time on the books, you will be allowed to borrow against future PTO time earned.

All non-exempt (hourly) employees will have the option of using PTO hours or taking the day off without pay. If you are uncertain of how much PTO time you have on the books, or have questions about this policy, please contact me. "

I told him to find some others who wouldnt mind working and tell them that they have to give them the option to work if they arent offering a paid day off.

that has to be wrong.... no way. Close and force workers to use PTO?

I'd set the building on fire

My company does that. Even used vacation days for the hurricane.

I could see the hurricane. I did the same. We had no power, so there was no choice and I had to use my time.
But they are choosing to be closed on Monday, and not give you the chance to work if you dont want to use PTO or vaca.

I'm trying to think of an instance for that as well but i know my company does the same. They screw us whenever possible

that makes zero sense. i could see why they would take the day if you choose not to work but they should be giving you the option to work.

my company is making it so that at least one person in each department has to be in the office on christmas eve. i was able to take a half day but some other departments got screwed.

They arent going to close, but it looks like they are going to be bought out. Send techs my way if they come in!
