Am I right for quitting my job?
I currently walked out of my work place. My manager has made me feel belittled, disrespected, stupid, useless and a whole bunch of other things that aren't right. There isn't enough room for me to list everything, but I hope the point is still the same.
The icing on the cake came when I was clocked out and on lunch break outside of the business establishment talking with a friend about how I disliked my job. This was a private conversation. Come to find out, my manager was eaves dropping on us. I came back from break and she confronted me with "I heard what you said and I don't appreciate it." After that, she gives a huge list of tasks to do that can't be done within one day, let alone one weekend. I was wrote up later for "gossiping". Was I right for walking out on this job?

from what you have said i think your manager is just a meany and yes you were right as long as you arent "desperate" for money or anything but you can find another job where you feel more respected and listened to as a person instead of an employee so stick it to the boss and im proud of you for standing up for yourself.

Yes! You also have right to refuse any tasks you think are wrong or unsafe. If this was a private conservation held outside than she/he is in the wrong for listening. They can't fire you for it, demote you or make you do tasks that demean you.
If this place doesn't seem right for you to be in than quitting was the right move. Nobody has the right to treat you like gum under their shoes.
Also, this person probably hasn't gone that far in life with education. The best they'll likely ever amount to is a managerial position like this. Because of their own lack of confidence and education they will treat others the way they feel inside so as not to seem below them.
Any idiot who takes frustrations out on a child under their employ is one to get away from. This person is one sad and sorry person and totally in the wrong. It was wise to move on. Don't look back. There's bigger and better opportunities out there.
Let this be a lesson to you to watch where you converse on or near the business place. They have cameras and possibly other hidden equipment monitoring you and picking up things.
