Trainee Dispenser

I recently started at Boots as trainee dispenser and I absolutely hate it. When I have a question I feel like such a burden, the store is so unorganised and because I'm on the counter. I'm in charge of finding out where the prescriptions are and their stage of readiness (I struggle finding them cause of the disorganisation so I end up having to ask) I even put stock away wrong apparently, even though, as a 30 year old adult, I do know the alphabet.. obviously.. I will admit my skills dont really line up with a trainee dispenser role HOWEVER my store has had 3 people (4 including me) have to quit, go on sick, or ask to move stores so I know it isn't just a 'me' problem. My family and friends just think it cant be that bad but its really damaging my mental health. I had a random panic attack the other week because I was just so overwhelmed. I have a probation meeting coming up soon, and I definitely haven't passed my probation as there isnt time to train me because we are so understaffed, so I think I will end up getting dismissed because I dont think a 1 month probation extention will make any difference. Its a bit worrying possibly being out of work but I really think I will hit complete breaking point if I stay there any longer
