I am sending you lots of sympathy and empathy...
About 5 weeks ago I walked out on a job I hated. No notice, nothing. Sent the district manager an email that I was through. My old job sounds a lot like yours. I was the manager for a clothing store and was expected to do sooooooo much work. And was also expected to drive my sales force relentlessly. I was paid pretty well, but my staff made minimum wage. I just couldn't treat them the way the company expected, so I was written up for "failing to hold my team accountable". I worked there only 8 months and was written up twice! In over 20 years of working I had never been written up before and now twice in 8 months! Other managers in my district want to quit too but they can't. They are single moms and depend too much on their paycheck...
Now the mister is freaking out that we can't make our mortgage payment with only one salary. He's right. Unless I find another job and fast we are in trouble.
Good luck to you. You are not alone...
