Paycheck 8+ days late, again. Might quit tomorrow, wish me luck.

I'm really, really done. This job is stressful enough. I just found out that they're doubling my caseload to 120 homeless individuals, with a projected 20% to house. I also do recruitment (“outreach”) 3-4 days a week. It's two full jobs, for $19/hour in CA. Lately, my paychecks have been coming a full week late. I also tolerate bullying by my coworker. To add insult to injury, they're waiting until the funds are in the account to re-issue the check. I don't have direct deposit, but at this point, this clearly isn't my liability. It's never happened at any other job, and it's absurd. I have an interview and a few applications lined up. I'll be fine for this month, and I have a few coworkers who will leave me a positive reference. Do I owe them 2 weeks at this point? I'd much rather just walk out.
