I asked because it sounded like a very common thing to do. Where I live the person celebrating is supposed to bring cake, snacks or something. He/she has plenty of time off, just not typical taken during one own birthday
We prefer taking days off around weekends or an entire week for holidays (valid for the part of Europe I been). But talking your birthday off is not particularly common practice although nothing is stopping you if you want to.
Any reason he should not have come in during his birthday?
Because he had the day off, then came in anyway presumably because they called him in?
So, just making random shit up?
Id definitely read that as “coming in on his birthday, which he’d priorly arranged to have off”.

Everyone should have PTO that they can use whenever they want.
Yes certainly.
