rumot mill at work is making me not want to be there anymore.

I work for the government in a security type position. We have 30 or so people on shift at any given time. I am relatively new and there is a clear disdain for newbies, although leadership has stated they are trying to squash that. Anyway, I've been there about 5 months now and I keep getting pulled into the supervisors office to discuss things I've said. It's always some sort of twisted perversion of something I've actually said. Someone or multiple people are taking my statements and twisting them into things that make it seem like I hate working there, am only there because I have to be and just overall make me sound like a really shitty employee. The thing is I actually like my job and take pride in it. I DO want to be there. This job has actual purpose, the pay is good and so are…

The thing is I actually like my job and take pride in it. I DO want to be there. This job has actual purpose, the pay is good and so are the benefits. This highschool type of social environment is starting to feel really toxic though and I'm starting to wonder if I really want to be there anymore. All because of my fellow employees, my supervisors are actually pretty understanding and seem to believe when I explain the situation.

Why do we make it this hard for eachother to succeed. I'm in my late 30's and so far have noticed it's the older folks that act this way. All the younger people seem way more willing to help lift me up, but the older generation just seems to get off on making me suffer, either directly to my face or behind my back. I don't get it, they had it so well and easy compared to me and it just feels like putting me down lifts them up somehow. It's shit like this that puts me off of working in general.
