'We have made a change to PTO': HR tries to get workers to use their PTO if they need to work from home

Since when were PTO and WFH the same thing? Apparently, at this company, these completely separate concepts have been conflated as a means to manipulate employees. That's what this Redditor shared via this thread on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, and let's just say that people in the comments section were quick to call out this ridiculous toxicity. 

Time off is time off, not time out of the office. We should culturally be used to the concept of remote work for long enough now to know that it's still very much work. We suspect that this policy would be rescinded immediately with the quick and brief involvement of the Labor Board because the concept behind this fakery is clearly illegal. This isn't anyone's agenda to work less but rather to make appropriate use of the time off that employees signed up for when taking on the job. Keep scrolling below to see the email from HR for yourselves! When you're done, here's your 2023 guide to 'quiet quitting.'
