So I've worked at places that would put out collection boxes for toys. But most of their workers were well paid and they didn't solicit those donations.
But I just received an e-mail today urging us to donate to families in need at the local school. Dude, many of the employees are families in need. Like, fucking really. We've got people in on parole, literal gang bangers… No mention of them donating or telling us how they're contributing to the community they want us to support.
“It's so nice to give.” Yeah. How about give the workers a pay raise and give some toys to those families. The profits can support that.
