Talk to your boss before your next shift - being proactive is key. Explain that you had a momentary blib of a reaction that embarrassed you and you left early. If your boss is anywhere near human, they will understand and offer guidance on what you can do if it ever happens again. Not that you owe your coworkers an explanation, but if you feel you need to address it, you can say something casual like, "sorry for the flip out yesterday, I'm not a great speller and can be embarrassed about it."
This is a learning experience (albeit a terrible one). And if it makes you feel any better, anything I'm good at is because something terrible happened. I'm good at lots of stuff now. ๐
Hang in there!!
