Why is it normal for grown men to address another grown man as buddy? Buddy is something you call a child or a dog. There's this mass of men out there, mostly insecure rednecks who lean conservative who call other men "buddy". It's always those blue collar tradie scum bags using that word.
Intelligent, white collar professionals don't address their coworkers as "buddy", nobody in the corporate world does that except a higher up trying to humiliate and demean people in lower positions. Key words, humiliate and demean.
Then you go out the country. You find the temporarily embarrassed millionaire Trump supporter with the red neck, fat, obese, wearing mossy oak, 2nd amendment bumper stickers on their faggot truck being all nice to you to your face and then calling you "buddy".
Fucking die a slow painful death, you trash.
