Tbh the manager probably can't do much anyway about it... and probably knows that the employees sent you off instead of teaching you like they were supposed to. In my town, the manager is who is the one who teaches everyone how to do their job, mainly because this was and has been an issue forever. Hopefully, the old lady will quiet down while you learn.

Panera is such a stressful job.
My cousin worked there, and they gave him NO breaks at all
and it gets so busy there.

Ahhh I've had a similar experience. Don't give up!
When I first started working at my current job I also had an older worker act all passive agressive on me when I was first starting out. You are still new so mistakes are bound to happen. I know the feeling sucks but you can also use the experience to improve your performance next time, it'll get better with practice as long as you put your mind to it. Fast food is pretty stressful but it'll get easier once you're used to it.

This all makes me very glad that the manager said it'd probably be too fast-paced for me when I had the interview.

...The manager said it would be too fast-paced for you, then hired you? I mean, that just sounds like they were setting you up for failure. Don't be hard on yourself. Restaurants are very stressful and ANY job is made worse when you don't receive proper training. I've quit several jobs because nobody would explain my duties and train me properly. I don't want to waste my time or feel useless.
