As the tile says I'm on PTO, right now needed a mental break from my shit job. I'm decently friends with my supervisor but he just called me from the work Manager On Duty phone stating that our Manager of Operations sent out an email yesterday stating that we need do some sort of online training that is due today and if I had seen the email.
“We had sent out an email earlier this week stating that this needed to be done did you see that?”
“No I turned my email notifications off cause im on PTO”
“Well I need you to turn them back on and get that done.”
“Okay”
“Okay enjoy the rest of your day off”

I've been off since Sunday and they rarely ever give us the time or space to do the trainings that are required of us. My next day in is on Monday but I'll be at a different location essentially(they send us to other locations all the time but even then we barely get the time). My hours for this week are at 40 from all my PTO and what I've been told before is that we cant work regular hours after having 40 hours of pto because that would be overtime.
My question is it legal for them to ask me to complete this training while I'm off?
Or do I just save myself the trouble and just do it?
Forgot to mention that I'm an hourly employee and not salary.
Should I go around my supervisor and go to his higher up and inform him of the circumstance he put himself in? He's the one that approved my time off that I quite literally had to fight for, so there's no way in hell that this man doesn't know I'm off.
