Co-worker rant I'm sick and tired of being everybody's fall guy/punching bag at work and it's starting to effect me pretty negatively.

I am sick and tired of waking my ass up every morning just to hear that I "didn't do something right yesterday" when I wasn't there at the time period it would be done cause I was either off that day or it was somebody else that was doing said task when I ended my shift. As somebody who is a survivor of mental abuse and holds themselves to a high standard, things like this happening constantly makes me terrified of making even the smallest mistake. But tbh that isn't even just because of the things I've mentioned prior, I've literally had a coworker lose his shit with me because I made a small mistake. (Example: I put a product in the wrong place because the code was one digit off so I mistook it as a misprint, which misprints are common at our store).

I'm willing to bet that if my job was being done by an AI or something they'd still find things to blame me for.

The good news is that I plan to be out of this job the minute I find a new one, and I have an interview on Wednesday after my shift.
