I can’t do anything right at my job lol

I’ve only been at this company for five months in a horribly rushed, learned-nothing training program, a nitpicky, micromanaging boss, and the Director is now beside her reprimanding every single little thing I do. “Ask more questions!” (Gets talked down to and told “you should know this/this was in my vaguely worded email”) “You need to learn better!” (Tells them I’m more of a visual learner) “Well you aren’t a visual learner if nothing is sticking!” “108% is not overspending!” (Standard rate is 100 – 102% spend, got reprimanded after saying 108 is overspending) “Are you done yet?” Every five minutes. “Okay! Thanks guys! I think I got the gist of the assignment you asked me to do!” (Is reprimanded by both manager and director: “YOU NEED TO GET IT DONE, NOT ‘GET THE GIST.’”) Find out they’re reporting me to HR because I’m “not where I need to be.”…

“Ask more questions!” (Gets talked down to and told “you should know this/this was in my vaguely worded email”)

“You need to learn better!” (Tells them I’m more of a visual learner) “Well you aren’t a visual learner if nothing is sticking!”

“108% is not overspending!” (Standard rate is 100 – 102% spend, got reprimanded after saying 108 is overspending)

“Are you done yet?” Every five minutes.

“Okay! Thanks guys! I think I got the gist of the assignment you asked me to do!” (Is reprimanded by both manager and director: “YOU NEED TO GET IT DONE, NOT ‘GET THE GIST.’”)

Find out they’re reporting me to HR because I’m “not where I need to be.” Then I have to work during this holiday break while they’re out of office so I can’t ask questions or clarify.

I don’t know what to do. I’m always nitpicked or reprimanded for everything I do. I need a new job to pay rent. I hate it here.
