Why are people so difficult?

Okay, so I've been having a really sucky-@ss time out here in Rochester. I've been living with my sister and her husband in a crappy neighborhood, with pretty much nobody to hang out with but my computer. I work(ed) at Tim Hortons fulltime, and deal with a lot of sh!t during each day.
My job is at the moment, my decision on weather to keep or leave... the decision asked to be answered by sunday... and I have no other ideas as for where to work at the moment. I've applied at several other stores because I have indeed been having many problems at Tim Hortons.
To explain some of these problems:My Boss thinks I hate her, and that I'm a liar. She so much as told me that and that she refuses to believe ANYTHING i have to say.
I've been written up because I JOKINGLY said no to a co-worker when he asked me to get an ice-cap bucket from the cooler. This was like two weeks ago, and he was like, "Donna, do you wanna grab a bucket for me?" I replied, "Not really..." and walked off to get it anyway, he laughed, and I said, "Just messing!" He told my boss... basically... that I said no. And that I didnt get it.
She wont believe a word I said even though I tried to tell her I was kidding and that I did go get the bucket and fill the machine.
She told me that ALL the managers and supervisors are getting frustrated with me, and so I told her there was no point in keeping me on the schedule anymore in that case. She dragged out the conversation and said at the end, I want your decision on sunday, just call me.
She also suggested that If I wanted to quit to work until I had found a new job at least... and I'm not sure I want to put up with anymore sh!t from them. She's ensured that I wont get hired at any other Tim Hortons already, told them all that I was a huuuge liar... not that I'd want to work there ever again anyway.
To add onto that... my brother-in-law today stated that he would not have me living under his roof If I were become unemployed. Thinking about that, where would I go? My parents live 50 minutes away and there's no jobs out there, They wont even have me living with them again. I'd be on the street. My brother-in-law... is an @sshole.
Can anyone tell me why people have to be so difficult? I really think im not getting it right now.

Did you ever consider thay your attitude is turning people against you? If you are having a hard time with EVERYBODY, the problem is probably yours, not theirs. Don't quit your job until you find another, then just walk out if they are treating you mean. However, you must understand that you are the bottom of the ladder, and everybody is better than you, and having an attitude that you are owed respect won't wash in any job.

But see, I dont give anyone an attitude at work, I do what I'm told, when I'm told to do so. I do my job as well as I can, and it's like it's never good enough for them.
