Slanderized by former employer
What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Louisiana
My boyfriend and I worked for the same small business until a few days ago. I received a text message from the employer saying we were both fired for "too many things to list, things missing from inventory, we can't put up with it" when I asked what was missing and what was going on the only response I got was "STEALING" she retracted that comment a few days later and then accused us again of stealing. We have not stolen anything. We have filed for unemployment and are currently seeking new work but have received phone calls from customers that we know wanting to know what happened. I was told by a few that they went to the shop and asked when my next shift was and were told "they were both fired because they are nothing but thieves" apparently they also threw in some unkind names for us. I am wondering what kind of action I can take.
