I’m TERRIFIED of quitting my job

I am terrified of quitting my job. I have worked for my family’s construction company for the past 5 years. I haven’t been promoted to anything or trained on how to do anything in the office. I’ve been trying to show my boss (my uncle) that I know what I am doing and he yells at me when I try my best. This past Friday I was screamed at because I had asked him what he was doing on a certain project. His words were “how many times have you done this?!? You are so stupid and I can’t understand how you’ve been working on this for the past 3 days and you can’t do anything right” Fast forward to tonight. I had texted him asking if I was working tomorrow because I had been told not to come in for the past 2 days. He tells me I am…

Fast forward to tonight. I had texted him asking if I was working tomorrow because I had been told not to come in for the past 2 days. He tells me I am working a 14 hour day tomorrow and I have to be there at 5am. (We usually work 9 hour days M-F). I am so mad because I feel I am being reprimanded and having anger taken out on me. This type of thing has been happening to me for the past couple months and I’m tempted to just go in and quit but I’m terrified of the aftermath of what’s going to happen considering that he is my family. What do I do???
