My manager forced me to work 7 hours without a break. Should I quit?
I feel like this extremely unreasonable. 7 hours without a break?

No you should not quit--this can happen in any place of work. Geez--you sound like a little baby--a whole seven hours!! My goodness. How demonic!!
Seriously--that' s not illegal, nor is is "extreme" or unreasonable in some circumstances. If it happens over and over, then--MAYBE--you'd have an issue. But once? Grow up.

a 7 hour shift you should get ONE PAID break and ONE UNPAID 30 minute lunch.
Go get your employee handbook or look up your states labor laws and show him

If it was just one time, I'd let it pass. But it's your decision. Be sure to secure a new job before quitting the old one, of course.
If you add detail about what the job is, and the geographical location, others here might be able to advise on whether breaks are customary, or even required, after such a period of time.

In about half the states, there are no breaks or lunch periods legally required. That said though, most companies give them.
