Antiwork

I got a burnout yesterday and my employer still wants me to come into work.

As for context, ive been working 60 hour weeks for the past 2 months now. The atmosphere is usually bad, and there's a hierarchy which there shouldn't be. (it's a pretty fancy restaurant). I'm the head waiter and simultaneously the only waiter except for some part timers who also have their own job. It's gotten too much for me. The stress and long hours made me reach a burnout. Now i made a mistake this week which cost the company about €300 euros and now as a punishment he also wants me to work during my own birthday party and the evening before in which i paid for two €80 tickets for a soccer game. I earn €7.20 an hour, im not working that day. I won't even earn one ticket back. Everyone is pulling on me from different sides. Mostly employer and family. I really am looking for advice…

I really am looking for advice on how to handle the situation. This is not meant to be a rant.
