I feel that my manager doesn't like me.,what should I do?

Ok basically I work at a retail store, It's my first ever job and I'm inexperienced. It's only been four shifts at work and I made a few mistakes(they are not serious AT ALL). My manager seems like she thinks I'm stupid or something because I was asking help on my THIRD time on the register. At one point,she said "I don't like you because you keep asking questions" when I only asked her a questions twice.

This morning before the store opened, me and another 3 coworkers had a small meeting with the manager and she talked through some of the things. Well, I was observing him all the way through but she didn't look at me AT ALL, not even a glance! She was just addressing the other three as if I didn't exist! Now that I think about it, every time he talked to a few of us, I was always left out of his sight range.

She didn't make any rude remarks to me or something like that but it really hurt me that he treated me like i wasn't part of the group. Ok, i know that the other people can do their job fast and efficient cuz they been here like at least a year, I've only been here for four days but a few tiny mistakes really shouldn't be enough for her to think lightly about me.

I really do think that as a newbie(this is my first job ever), I need his encouragement badly, if I make a mistake, I correct it, but if i do something right, it would really motivate me tremendously if she can give me at least a word of acknowledgment like 'it seems that you are getting on.' Every time I do something,she's like "No,why are you even doing that? Do something else." and she gave everyone else their fifteen at the same time and then gave me mines separately so I just sat by myself for fifteen minutes.

Anyway, sorry for the complaint, i just wanna ask you guys if it is possible to turn things around. I like this job as well as the people here including the manager.

Oh,and at one point when everyone was folding she said something like "One new cashier did a terrible job today,I think SHE is going to graduate to floor and FLOOR only,that's really bad"

and i was the only girl doing cashier so everyone knew she was talking about me....

You're new - you need a paycheck don't you - do what they tell you to do

Working the cash register is no better than the Floor ! !

Working on the register is cool there isnt much work and its super easy. They should have trained you so that you dont make any mistakes or the mistakes are very minimal. If they moves you from cashier to working on the floor i would just stop working there all together. Going from cashier to working on the floor is a big demotion
