Thinking of quitting without giving two weeks notice today…

I work at a luxury apartment building. My relationship with my manager has already been tense; I don't feel like I've been adequately trained on several aspects of my job and I get reprimanded for failing to do things properly despite not having the proper training/assistance to do them. But that's all just preamble. I found out yesterday that somebody was raped in this building a few weeks ago by another resident. Her mother came in to the office crying because of how my manager (who is off on the weekends) has been handling the situation. She has accused the resident and her mother of “harassment” for trying to get her to co-operate with the investigation. On top of that, she told the resident alleging the assault that she would “be glad this happened one day”. I've seen some correspondence between my manager and the resident and frankly I'm disgusted.…

I've seen some correspondence between my manager and the resident and frankly I'm disgusted. I called corporate about my concerns and I felt totally brushed off; they gave me the “innocent until proven guilty” spiel about the accused resident but had nothing to say about my manager.

Yesterday was emotionally harrowing. I threw up when I got home. I don't know how to continue working at this job. I don't know how to continue working with this person or at this company. I have interviews scheduled and I have some savings, but I don't have another job lined up. And yet I have my resignation letter ready to send. I don't know… this is a ramble I guess. Can anyone tell me if I'm being rash? Any similar experiences?
