That is not adequate care. If they were nurses or doctors they should be reported to their professional organization. If not, reported up the work chain. On another note, you seem to furthering the myth that men are mentally/emotionally stronger than women by using the term "man up". #sicknotweak
Glad to know that's a thing. I wonder if I can find something similar near me.
I get your point but that term simply makes me bristle. My point is that "being strong" has nothing to do with not crying or not being sick. Everyone gets sad and many people have horrible depression. If anyone thinks that crying is weakness when one is hitting rock bottom, going through a divorce, having a sick kid/parent/partner, etc., they are simply wrong. It is completely normal. Hiding it just makes the situation worse. I am not sure why some people think that men are not supposed to be human. If that is what you feel you want to do, then do it and don't hide it. Fuck those that do not have the basic humanity to understand that. I wish you luck.
