Dont feel like you are being picked on. I Know how you feel. I have been there. Fortunatly I found a couple of old timmers that could see my integrety and determination. I was 19 when I went online at a major dealership. Most of upper management did not want young learners around. They want the now money not the future money. If their figures are bad they are out next month. (Survival Thing). I was rode hard, no breaks for me. Perfection was expected always. They tried to push me away that way. Dont let them rock you, show them with hard , good work. 20 years later I have become one of the most sought after in my area. I can quit my job anytime and have another with a phone call within 5 minutes. I now thank those who cut me no slack as it made me try to be the best I could be.You learned a fairly inexpensive lesson. I know of Mech. in Atlanta that put on a wrong oil filter and ruined a $10,000 Porsche engine. Lost his job and now no one wants him. Hang in there, I tell my kids if you can read theres little you cant do with practice. Dont be afraid to be humble, ask for ideas to prevent problems next time. Dont think of people Riding your back but think of it as constructive criticisim(Sometimes you will have to convince yourself of that). If God has give you the talent and desire you must keep trying.Be better from this lesson and get no sour feelings.You will be better from this, it happened for a reason, look for good in everything,it is hard to see but if you get positive you will find good. Stand tall and proud,fight the good fight and you will succeed.
