Office politics suck!

Most of it was not true. She didn’t mention anything I did right but complimented other girls in the office.

I am feeling targeted~ and I am not sure why. I did my job to the best of my ability. I don’t want to quit this job over catty co-workers but how do I navigate office politics when the new girl is the obvious scapegoat.
