You could retort every time they call you faggot. At the very least it might get them to stop. If they complain to anyone, you can then be free to explain that they are calling you faggot (and name every time they've done so).

If it were me, I would look for a new job, document, AND refer to them as "mouth breathing, useless, cow country homophobes" every time they use a slur like faggot.

Someone had to hire them (and you) so that is the person with whom you file a complaint, but be aware, they may fire YOU instead. I've been there. Bullied by the woman who hired me and when I complained to the president of the foundation (it was a non-profit organization), I was fired. Turns out the woman to whom I complained is THE bully and her bullying BS rolled downhill. Place still exists, but it has 100% turnover of its employees (except for the head bully, she's still in charge and probably always will be).

And the sad truth is, no matter where you work or with whom you work, there are assholes - misogynists, racists, homophobes, idiots, bullies, etc.

Good luck.

Hang in there, man. I've been in similar situations. Sometimes you just have to let it roll off your shoulders, but sometimes you just can't. I would try speaking up to them first. Tell them to stop calling you faggot, tell them how stupid they sound, and then tell them you fucked their wife even though she's ugly. That usually works.
In all seriousness though, I think your best option is to just find another job and get the hell out of that place. Just put up with them for a little while longer while you search for a new job. I'm sure you don't want to stay there anyway. You're probably already looking, I would imagine. Good luck, my friend.

Pro tip: there are actually people called lawyers who can help with these things. Try the google.

Oregon is a one-party consent recording state, I/A. Wear a wire to work and get these comments on tape. Then leak it to the 'Merc or some other media outlet, or to some LGBTQ group with a website, and let them put the company on blast. Follow it up with your own lawsuit. It will be fun to see those hillbilly fucks go out of business right quick.

Please wait...
