Has anyone successfully approached an individual who has completely ghosted them? I find the practice so frustrating and lacking in respect. I’d like to confront it, but perhaps should just let it slide... idk.

I think everyone gets ghosted- and I think it’s equally frustrating no matter your role- so I’d say call it out… I think we need more authenticity… people crave REAL. Of course do it in a tactful way- “Should I call
The Ghostbusters?…. You ghosted me and I’m thinking either the ghosts are holding you hostage- or I said/did something they sent you running for the hills? Either way I’d really appreciate your honest feedback so I can avoid repeating the same mistake in the future… “

Most of my freelance work over the past three years has been cannabis industry related. I was hired in the beginning of November in-house for a growing brand. (pun not intended) It feels like the wild west where anything goes and most people seem to be winging it.

So much potential to do great work, but nothing I would show or be proud of. I did better work as a consultant.

Anyone else working on the Brand side of the cannabis industry? Thoughts?
