Default Does anyone hate being a trainee?

I am dreading work tomorrow.

I have 6 months left and have been told that I am not doing great at work.

Its like every thing I go to do I encounter problems or it takes much longer than I anticipate and I end up really under pressure to cope with the rest of my work. My employer tells me I am not where the other trainees have been at this point of training.
I find it hard asking as it is implied that I should know or research. I feel I have not got the time to research and sometimes I don't get the answers I need.

I get so stressed at work and don't always remember stuff or use my initiative as I should as I am so caught up in stress. I get emotional at work about the work.

Of course if I admit this to my employer, then this would make me look even more stupid.

Does anyone else feel like this and have managed to sort themselves out?
What strategies could I adopt?

Aargh, what a lovely weekend and now the blues about work are hitting me!!!
