What is the name of your state? Utah
So I am pretty much in the same business as before and the market is close-knit so once something is said it usually finds it's way everywhere. Anyway, I heard a rumor my old boss told someone he didn't know why I quit because I made x amount of money (which the amount was totally incorrect), but isn't there something I can do to make him legally not say anything? He has already threatened to sue me (with legal papers from a lawyer) if I tell any of my friends/customers where I now work.
I seem to have wasted a few years helping him start the business (I didn't have anything financially vested in the business but LOTS of time not being paid for) so I wouldn't mind somehow getting paid for that time lost even though I quit that job. I quit because I finally realized I was going nowhere in the business and would never make any more money than I was and he was cutting the benefits of working there drastically.
Any ideas?
thanks
