Advice for handling work place stress

(Feel free to remove If it doesn't belong here.) I'm 16 (f) I got my first proper job 3 weeks ago at my local Greggs (British fast food pastry chain) today is my 6th shift and I've already gone home crying, It's mostly to do with co-workers and my training.

I'm 16 (f) I got my first proper job 3 weeks ago at my local Greggs (British fast food pastry chain) today is my 6th shift and I've already gone home crying, It's mostly to do with co-workers and my training.

One particular colleague (32) I can tell looks down on me, he comes into work even on his days off or well before his shifts starts and looks over my shoulders to pick out what I'm doing wrong, when I ask him questions about where something is or what to do he acts like I've asked him the stupidest question, sometimes he assumes I've done something wrong and tries to call me over until my supervisors tell him I haven't and maybe I heard wrong or was projecting but I made a mistake on breakfast and I think I heard him mutter “Oh my god, your useless.”

I just feel like I'm annoying everyone because I've only had 2 shifts (8hrs) proper training and everyone I've worked with has worked there for years and the people who I work with most often are men in their 20's and 30's so I just feel small in comparison.

I just don't know how to handle the stress.
