I Ghosted My Best Friend

Big Slick here 👊 Got a story or need advice? Text me now — might make it on Talk Ya Sh!t! 🎙️💯

What happens when the person you ghosted becomes your boss? This episode dives into a real listener letter about a former best friend who now controls the schedule, the hours, and the workplace vibe—and it’s tense. From awkward silence to reduced shifts and passive retaliation, Big Slick breaks down how unresolved personal drama can turn into a full-blown career problem.

We unpack the real issue behind ghosting a close friend and why avoiding closure comes back harder when power dynamics change. Whether it’s favoritism, cold treatment, or quiet punishment at work, this conversation lays out your real options: quit and protect your peace, transfer if possible, or confront the situation with honesty and professionalism. We explain why pretending nothing happened rarely works—and how a short, direct conversation can sometimes reset the working relationship.

You’ll also get practical advice on protecting yourself at work: documenting schedules, tracking feedback, maintaining professionalism, and knowing when retaliation crosses the line. If staying isn’t worth the stress, we cover how to exit clean, protect your reputation, and rebuild your network without burning bridges.

This episode is about accountability, boundaries, and understanding that your personal brand follows you—especially in tight industries where everyone knows everyone. If you’ve ever mixed friendship and work and lived to regret it, this one’s for you.
