Following an incident where my coworker harassed my sister and I while him and I were on the clock, I reported him to my supervisor. I also informed him (my coworker) that I was going to report him as well (stupid, I know). However, this report appeared to be ignored while a report he made shortly after resulted in my termination. Before I was fired, he admitted that he had made the reports in retaliation against me, stating, “I thought I’d get fired and made the reports so you would be too.”
Can this be considered retaliation, and can I take legal action if the only evidence I have is my report and his subsequent report?
