Subtly trying to tell or express that they are doing something that your are not whether that’s with a friend or telling them that they have done something therefore trying to say that they are currently better than you
Someone says “Starting my job soon!”

Then another person makes it about themselves by saying “cool I’m staring my job internship at a grocery store next month, it’s unpaid but it will look good on my college application!”
