AITA for quitting my $10/h job?

I just feel a bit bad about it all. I had moved to another job from there to 15/h since I was perfectly content with my job, since I didn't need money or anything. But my Assistant Manager (AM) came one day to the store and she said she was crying because the Store Manager (SM) was always giving her an attitude and making her feel miserable. She said she was texting the SM about the store and the SM just said “stop texting me on my off days”, and so my AM came in for one last day just to tell us and to not just leave us stranded on the job. she just clocked in and smoked the whole time. it resulted in my other coworkers also quittin because that AM was truly so wonderful. i understood why my AM felt that way and I couldn't bear to…


I just feel a bit bad about it all. I had moved to another job from there to 15/h since I was perfectly content with my job, since I didn't need money or anything. But my Assistant Manager (AM) came one day to the store and she said she was crying because the Store Manager (SM) was always giving her an attitude and making her feel miserable. She said she was texting the SM about the store and the SM just said “stop texting me on my off days”, and so my AM came in for one last day just to tell us and to not just leave us stranded on the job. she just clocked in and smoked the whole time.

it resulted in my other coworkers also quittin because that AM was truly so wonderful. i understood why my AM felt that way and I couldn't bear to be with that SM any longer. Any time anything happened she'd always get so absurdly angry or flustered. She'd give vague instructions and then quite literally roll her eyes and make “jokes” to the District manager that “my workers are gonna put me in the hospital” and overall her tone and attitude with all of us was just so condescending. I had other managers that straight up mocked me for studying physics, saying stuff like “you fucked up this simple thing and you're trying to get into physics, REALLY???” , and of course you can't say anything back because “they're the boss” Anyway, she'd yell at me like my old managers would. Eventually one day unloading a truck, my other coworker was throwing boxes and fucking up the boxes on the pallets. She randomly came and was yelling like “Y'all need to understand how to stack or I'm going to start firing some people”, and looked at me. I've been there for two years. it's not me doing it but I'm her go-to fuck up

I applied for another job that paid $15 an hour and told her that I was going to another job a week and a half before I started the other job. I said I'd be fine with working still. But I just couldn't handle her. every time she talked to me I felt horrified and I don't like feeling like I'm some dumbass. So at first I said “can you please take me off the schedule going from now forward?” and she gets in her condescending tone and was like “You said that and now that? is this your resignation letter?”. I just couldn't take it. I knew the next time she saw me she'd be extra pissed. I would have tried to work with her more but her attitude just horrifies me, so I said “yes, that's my resignation”.

she said “thanks” and now I'm just a bit worried to go back to that place on my off time. I know it'll be biased asking here but what the hell 🤣 just needed to get that out my system.
