Like, why is it so widespread, what causes it, what solutions are available, etc. I don’t really know how to ask this question so I hope I’m making sense

    I think you hit the nail on the head. To offer an anecdote, a locally beloved small business owner was recently diagnosed with cancer and was hospitalized. I asked one of his male employees if they’re passing around a hat to help cover his bills, or at least signing a card. The guy laughed and said “That’s a question for one of the girls. Men don’t do that kind of shit.”

    It made me so sad. This guy was fighting for his life, and one of the men he’s closest with acted like he didn’t give a shit.

      I am a bit confused why would an employee collect money from other employees for their “owner”

      This is a bad example since your employer is your enemy. No adult man should ever be caught giving away hard earned money like that.
