Do you project manage your work?

I do large automation of reports as part of my work. My boss is uneducated in the timeframes it could take for the automation to be built. Therefore, I have to update jira, present Gantt charts, communicate progress updates to the stakeholders, etc. I’ve ended up designing, project managing, and executing on the project. Is this typical? Just curious.
