I flipped my shit over unethical business practices, need advice

So I work/worked at a small auto shop that's owned by national chain. My issue is this, when I was hired there was 4 of us total, two managers and two service advisors. In the course of a few months it was down to me. I was working 12 hour days, with no lunch breaks, the inability to leave the building and just a constant barrage of phone calls and people coming in. If you get behind in tasks it takes forever to get caught up. The other issue we were down a tech and we were basically over scheduling work. So it was like getting constantly barraged none stop almost most the day. So a couple of weeks ago I lost it and turned in my keys. It wasn't the smartest thing to do since I don't have another job lined up but what the hell. I can not…


So I work/worked at a small auto shop that's owned by national chain. My issue is this, when I was hired there was 4 of us total, two managers and two service advisors. In the course of a few months it was down to me. I was working 12 hour days, with no lunch breaks, the inability to leave the building and just a constant barrage of phone calls and people coming in. If you get behind in tasks it takes forever to get caught up.

The other issue we were down a tech and we were basically over scheduling work. So it was like getting constantly barraged none stop almost most the day. So a couple of weeks ago I lost it and turned in my keys. It wasn't the smartest thing to do since I don't have another job lined up but what the hell. I can not tell you how valuable a bathroom or lunch break is or someone to to just answer the phone or handle a customer issue is.

So now they have people coming from other locations which are short staffed as well to fill in. They want me to come back, I'm just not sure of it. Money is decent but not great but I need a job. They also didn't want to come off any extra money despite having to lone ranger it.

So would anyone here work in those conditions. 12-13 hour days, no breaks and by yourself? Send me your advice.
