First job

I’ve been working for like 7 months in a new job. I’m an undergraduate student in biotech. I’m a senior and I decided to work with my genomics teacher, she is really smart but so intense. I don’t feel comfortable in my job bc i work with doctors and they are so intense and criticize everything. When someone leaves the clinic, they start spreading shit about them. I would categorize this job as my transition job because I’m planing to do a PhD but I am still learning about stem cells and everything. They want me to be like “them” (I mean a product producer) and I am really excited to learn but for some reason i don’t share my private life, I don’t understand their jokes, they sometimes don’t think about me and they put me in uncomfortable situations that I don’t know how to respond like… “You should fuck with her (another researcher) just to make her more relieved when we are inside the lab” were clearly we have more than 30 years of difference.

I am a positive person, I love running in the morning and start my day really active. I have initiative in school and I was the president of a society and I did a lot of things but when I am with them, I feel less and like a small rabbit with anxiety.

Maybe is just a bad day, but what should I do? My plan is to prepare myself for the phd application this next year and then apply. I was thinking that spending a year or two years more would help me for my resume but it’s a lot of time. Do you had a similar experience?
