I am at my wits end and want to quit. They twist and turn things to make me feel stupid and the next minute tell me how wonderful I am. I am quitting in January but until then am working 50 hour weeks to prepare them for trial. How do I not explode until then and what is the best way to quit? I might need one of them for a referral into law school or help one day. Do I let it go and just say I am quitting to go back to schoo? What they don't know is I am going to work from home and go. I don't feel it's their busines to know I will be working from home. Somehow I still feel some stupid loyalty to them. My job is enough for three assistants yet its just me always running around like a chicken with its head cut off. They spite me while talking to me with their smiles plastered on their face. Do you know what I mean?

i suggest you leave on a positive note, as you mentioned that you would need refferals later on .. and it really is a small world, so you never know when your paths may cross...;)
you can cite illness or something like that...
you can tell them you are taking a sabbatical or that the doctor has advised you to take rest ...

Yes! Passive Aggressive behavior sucks!! It can really mess with your head! One minute they seem to like you and the next they don't! It comes from a lack of courage to express one's negative feelings or confront issues.
I'd be as nice as you can and get out of there as quick as possible!!! You're being used and it's time to move up the food chain!!
PS. You're not stupid!! You're discerning and sharp! Not to mention loyal probably to a fault!
