Here's the story, in a nutshell:
I was at work today, sharing a story with a co-worker, whom we'll call A. There was another co-worker, B, and me. I was telling A a story. B kept interrupting me, and spoiling the story, so finally I said, "God damnit!" Apparently this offended her because of her religious orientation, so she slapped me pretty damn hard in the arm. About 5 minutes later, she goes and tells the manager on me. The manager calls me and tells me to just watch my language (she's pretty cool), so I told her about B slapping me, and she said that B should've handeled it better, too.
Irrelevant information: Everyone hates B up there in the first place, and is now saying God damnit around her, just to piss her off.
Now, my question, is whether or not I could get her fired for this. Would this constitute as physical assault? I'm not familiar with all the laws/rules of the work place, but if it helps, I work in retail (clothes specifically).
Thanks
