1. In 30 years, I don’t think I have ever yelled at someone for not working fast enough, making a mistake, etc. It just is not conducive to the creative process. Maybe you should wait until the mood is right then initiate a positive, constructive discussion 1 on 1 to see where you can improve and how you can be better motivated.
2. If you are confident in your skills and if you are putting the project first, you will embrace criticism — even when it is not delivered in a kind way. If you are resistant it is because you have let ego step in and made it about ‘you’ and the not ‘work’.
3. In this climate, you are lucky to have a job in the field when so many do not, so be patient and keep your head down. Learn what you can and don’t burn any bridges.
