How will being fired from a retail job affect my future employment?

Hi, for context, I’m currently 18 years old and working my first job which is a part time retail job. I have 3 write ups because I was short on my register 3x. The first and second one were from my third and fourth day working—so I kinda barely knew what I was doing. I feel like maybe I have been always kind of bad at counting because I lose focus easily (I suspect I have undiagnosed ADHD and not solely because of this; there are many other things that I need to bring up to my physician #gulp). However, it has been around a month since those consecutive write ups and I just got another because I was short barely over the limit. I have another job that I interviewed for that I think will hire me but in the case that it doesn’t, what should I do if I get fired because I’m short again? How will that affect my future interviews for part time jobs? I’m pretty scared because I just got a car and my insurance is so much money so I really need to keep bag chasing rn😭. Thank you for any advice.
