How entitled is asking a write-up on a weekend as a first level screening?

I applied for a research position and received a reply today (Friday afternoon). As part of the first screening process, I am to submit a two page write-up by next Monday, 12 PM. So that leaves me with Saturday and Sunday to work on the literature review and complete the write-up. I am pissed, extremely tempted to write back asking them to fuck off, but also need a job soon. Maybe I will do the assignment, but I also don't want to not say anything either. Any suggestions on what I can write so that they get the message but won't be pissed enough to remember me (the development sector in my county is a pretty small network).

I put in twelve plus hour days and worked my weekends, to the point of having no social life outside of work. I wanted to show that I wanted a career. My boyfriend also worked here, we started together on the same team (something they noted repeatedly that they do not do). About a month in, my boyfriend required immediate emergency surgery. I was promoted, and when he was able to return, they suddenly could not “find him a position as he could not report to me or anyone at the facility”. In this time, we suffered a total loss car accident, and they could not get my new…

Look up the baby boomer retirement crisis online. Why work at all if it leads to decline and disappointment?

Social security will probably run out soon as well.

To any and all interested parties it's my 8th year on the reddits. You've been a cruel mistress sometimes but such is life. Any gold and plunder would be much appreciated
