And yes, for those of you who have been on the boards for awhile, these are the same co-workers that I spoke about in this post:

Things had been much better since, though, and I thought that we'd got all of this resolved. I hate the thought of, everytime there's a mistake or conflict, that I'll be seen as "the bad selfish girl" again, even when I don't mean to be. I also like our new hire and don't want her to see me that way.
It's like everyone else has some sort of magic book that tells them how to act, communicate, etc. and allows them to get along without too much conflict. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong, and obviously it's something--I need that "book"!
