Yeah, there's always a catch. The flip side of it is how miserable is she making everyone even if you don't do it, and how long will she be allowed to get away with this shit? If she did it to you, she's done it and will do it to other people.

That stated, I'm always a big fan of quitting jobs when they start giving us nightmares. It sounds like that was the right thing to do. It's just a shitty time to survive without a paycheck. Something will come along because it always does. It just might take time.
