Try not to take it too personally. If you feel like you don't know exactly what they are looking for....just ask someone to help you. Find someone in the office that you feel comfortable with and ask them to help. They know you are trying and I don't think of it as an insult...I think they are just saying that you are still in a period of adjustment. Be patient with yourself and others. I know it is frustrating being the new kid on the block. It makes me nervous too. But most people are willing to help and show you what you need to know.
Good luck.

Try to keep your emotions away from your job. Easier said than done, because you want to do a good job, I know. However, Ex GI Joe has it right.
Remember, that all you have to say is: "Thank you for the correction." What this does is tell your boss that you honestly acknowledge you made a mistake and have the courage to get back on that horse.
Good luck!

Other people in the office always seem to make fun of the newby. Its a terrible thing to do, but unfortunately its done. When I'm on a new job and I do something wrong, I act like making a mistake is normal since I'm just learning the job and then I would ask my supervisor what he wants from me on the particular task. (I would not ask my fellow co-workers because they can and usually will set you up to fail) Who you really need to please is your supervisor. If teamwork is the big "buzz" word, then they are acting very much like a team. They are tearing you down instead of building you up.

Don't get angry that's a way for them to let people know to give you some slack for your mistake. Its there way of saying you messed up like everyone does. Its not meant as an insult. Take it as a sign of friendship. Good Luck

If you make a mistake (and you will) be willing to admit it RIGHT AWAY to the supervisor or trainer. Most bosses get really peeved if they have to find about a mistake from THEIR bosses.
They understand that you are new (or at least, they should) and that you will get better as you become more comfortable in that position.
A good rule of thumb to remember is this: "Keep your boss's boss off your boss's back."
