My boss is the hardest on me

A little context, I am an intern at an agency and have been there since June. I am still an intern because I work and study at the same time, and my boss wanted me to stick around so we found a work study balance/contract. However, once she took me out to lunch and proposed for me to change my role and be my personal assistant, since she was looking for one and trusted me.

How do people get a new job after having a bad relationship with their former manager/boss?

I’m slowly going crazy

I'm Stuck in warehouses because that's where I could get my first job. I literally leave my college education off my resume because it's useless especially with warehouse work because if they think you're smart they don't hire you. It's standard behavior in warehouse for management to be pissy and nobody to give a shit or even try to pretend to. Top it all off there's this constant “productivity” hanging over my head. Somebody please just fucking shoot me.
