Defamation By Former Co Worker

[Austen]

I quit employment I'd held for three years and began one more. A few months involved with it I began reading individuals at my operate like a "fag" talking about me. I aged my boss that which was happening and he moved me to a different group within the organization and told me it would be handled by him. 2-3 weeks later amongst the men and women I worked with in the other group was moved and he started distributing that a co-worker from my last work told him I was a "dope smoking fag." I informed my boss what was happening and he apparently talked with the other people and they all denied that they had been saying some thing about me. Via the span of the following month or two I was afflicted by being named a "fag" and informed that "I smelt like shit," on a regular basis. My co-workers had been probably to additional consumers and companies in the area and informing them that I was a "dope smoking fag, who smelt like shit." I overheard the primary one particular co-worker bragging to one more employee of yet another organization that they'd set it out all through. Ultimately soon after possessing adequate I referred to as the best of the division and left a note that I desired to speak to him concerning the situation going on with my group. I got a note from my group leader, who was a conspirator in most this, questioning why I'd named his employer and what the problem was 24 hours later. The following day my final day at work I more than heard one more worker speaking as I went by stating that somebody must "Defeat my faggot ass." I quit peaceful and perform.
I wound up obtaining one more function relatively rapidly. Sadly the sibling of my last job have been named by the person who worked there. Rapidly I started hearing men and women make reference to me as being a fag and smelling like shit and talking about situations that occurred at my last job. I visited my employer and told him of the dilemma at my final function and told him I thought that somebody had approached the organization and spread rumors about me. My manager stated he'd not noticed anything. The manager beneath my employer on yet another hand began calling into question my capabilities and started checking might work cautiously to full my job. Every single single day for just two months proper he'd contact me up and protest about, things to me ware insignificant troubles. Lastly I was fired from my job due to the fact I presumably was getting way too numerous problems.
I obtained perform once more relatively quickly, sadly with a enterprise the individual who began these rumors has connections with and however once more I've started hearing rumors of me being fully a drug-addict playing about. I'm actively seeking yet another job as I worry this can end badly.
Picture if any acceptable action do I've from the individual/persons spreading these lies and or the businesses that permitted it to take? I sadly don't have any witnesses as each time I faced somebody they'd deny they'd said/heard anything. I really do have an additional person who claims the particular person who started all of this started exactly the identical rumors about him a couple of years prior to. I've never ever been a drug-addict or am I a homosexual.
