'I decline, do it yourself': Overworked employee quits after dealing with upper management's double standards

I think that people only choose to become pettish when they are pushed to the brink. But if you ask me, the tale below makes a somewhat abrupt shift from magnificence to pettiness, leaving me astounded by the management team's lack of professionalism and arrogance. But instead of taking my word for it, let me give you a quick rundown of the events so you can be the judge. The story goes like this: OP says he has been looking for work for a while, therefore he is thrilled to be hired. However, as soon as he starts working, everything goes south at an astounding pace. I suppose that when it comes to business, there's a fine line between a legitimate request and an illegitimate one because OP quits soon after starting the job, and never looks back. 

This is essentially a classic account of a frustrated worker who feels overworked and unappreciated. So, be sure to check out the story below, and don't forget to let me know what you think about how OP handled himself! When you're done, check out the account of an older brother who attempts to get even with his younger brother for helping himself to his things without permission!
