My best friend was fired earlier this month from her bartending job. She worked there for two years. She babysat for free for the childrent of the owners of the bar, but recently told them that she could not babysit anymore. They soon fired her. I see that is probably not illegal in any way, just bad ethics. Well, my friend filed for unemployment two days after she was fired. Yesterday she got a phone call from someone from the unemployment office saying that the bar owner said that my friend was stealing and getting drunk at work and that is why she was fired. This is entirely not true. What recourse can my friend take for this malicious lies being said about her? Also, nothing was put in writing about her firing and she was never given any written reprimands during her tenure of employment. Thanks for your advice and guidance.
