I work for a landlord and it’s awful I’m actively trying to get fired

First the job was described as office assistant. My first day I’m editing someone’s lease. I’ve harassed people about their lawn, rent and other problems. I’ve heard a girl panic over the phone about her rent and it made me feel like scum. I’m 5 days in and I hate these people. The lady I work with is judgmental about every tenant. So is the main boss. Today he looked at an applicants pfp and said “I can tell by the way they look we won’t be renting to them” I hate the atmosphere. I hate the work. Worst of all is I work 7-4 with just a half hour lunch break. Tomorrow I go in at 6:30am he wanted me to stay late until 5:30ish but I said no. I asked the lady I work with today about the extra 2.5 hours I work every week and she said…

I’m 5 days in and I hate these people. The lady I work with is judgmental about every tenant. So is the main boss. Today he looked at an applicants pfp and said “I can tell by the way they look we won’t be renting to them” I hate the atmosphere. I hate the work.

Worst of all is I work 7-4 with just a half hour lunch break. Tomorrow I go in at 6:30am he wanted me to stay late until 5:30ish but I said no. I asked the lady I work with today about the extra 2.5 hours I work every week and she said “boss expects almost everyone to work a little overtime” I’m still baffled at how confidently she said it. He’s a “small business owner” with over 30 rental properties. They expect me to get quotes for all the properties lawn and snow care. Manage all the maintenance requests and show off properties. On top of trying to get people to rent them and keep up on insurance and leases. Also they do big jobs like town contracts and stuff and they want me to keep track of all of that too.

5 days in and immediately I’m starting to see these people literally live at work. I’m not that person but I don’t want to quit and be screwed. I’m actively trying to get fired and applying for literally any other job. Any advice would be appreciated.
