I’m not sure what to do.

I’m not even sure if this is the right place to post this. So my current job is at a quick oil change place, I’m barely making money (initially it was suppose to be full time but it seems like they give me 12-16 hours one week and then fill my plate the next when the more senior people want days off or can’t work), I make barely above the minimum wage in my state, I’m already struggling, and I have another job offer that I just need to sign off and complete the paperwork for this upcoming Thursday, I am nearly broke, but I do have one small paycheck coming up on Thursday as well and I can donate plasma for some extra cash in between getting the first check at the new place. I’m just not sure what to do and this more of a venting than anything…

I’m just not sure what to do and this more of a venting than anything else, my current job basically just use me as they need me and then cut my hours when I’m not needed, I barely get breaks (like tomorrow I won’t get a lunch break simply because it’ll only be me and the manager there until I’m off work, which I’ll be there past my scheduled time because my relief doesn’t come in until 4PM and I’m technically only scheduled til 3, but they’ll make me stay), it’s hot, I get hurt (whether it be a cut or scrape or burn) nearly everyday for basically slave labor wages. I really just want to say fuck it and mute my phone and just sleep in tomorrow and go donate plasma when I wake up, as I hate this place but then a part of me worries about what will happen otherwise and honestly as stupid as it sounds I feel bad about just quitting. Im at a crossroads here.
