It's not normal. It is scope creep.
My partner is an executive chef at a private school. It's one of our country's top schools that gets the occasional visit from people with royal titles (and one might soon be King), so think super rich kids: there is a lot of pampering. All of a sudden through this Covid thing we're all working through, there are texts and phone calls at 5:AM "There's a kid with a new allergy coming in today. Make changes in the lunch menu to accommodate them." This is literally a situation where one could ask, "Shouldn't this be an email, CC'd to others involved, too? And maybe even the day before so appropriate food items can be ordered?"
It's super annoying and clearly goes against how things are normally done in a well managed business. A lot of companies are clearly taking advantage of all the workarounds this pandemic has forced us to contend with. Except usually the abuse isn't even related to pandemic conditions.
A lot of people are technically working 24x7 nowadays.
