I hate my jobb

So today, yes, on a Sunday, my boss started sending me voice messages about things that need to be changed on the website. I’m completely done. I know that as an executive assistant we need to wear many hats, but I feel completely overwhelmed. I’m handling her personal tasks, managing around 100 clients, doing a bit of finance and marketing, and also making sure the website looks good.

My work hours are from 7 AM to 4 PM EST, but she always contacts me after hours. Even though I’m remote, I’ve developed anxiety in the mornings about looking at my phone because I’ll probably have six voice messages from her asking for all sorts of tasks. And now, in the middle of my Sunday, I received these messages sent directly to my phone.

I’ve been working here for almost a year. There are only four people on the team, and I’m the only one working full-time and directly supporting the CEO. She’s becoming increasingly demanding, and the job responsibilities have completely shifted from the beginning.

I’m even considering getting a job with lower pay just to have more mental peace. I won’t resign until I have another job since I still need the money, but do you have any tips on how to deal with this day to day? I try my best to distance myself, but she always uses some sort of manipulative method. Sorry about the little rant.
