A:
An employer is allowed to pile as much work as it wants on an employee, and not even offer more money for that work. Quitting a job because the employer is making it hard to do the job well is usually not going to allow you to get unemployment insurance benefits.
If you do not like your present job you should start looking for new work and leave once you have a job offer.
Good luck to you.
