English term or phrase: Always have to outdo everyone else
Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra donne che giocano a golf.

A: She used to be a member here but then her and her husband joined the swankier club in town. They’re social climbers. Always have to outdo everyone else.

La mia proposta:

A: Sono degli arrampicatori sociali. Devono sempre sopraffare gli altri.

Cerco soluzioni migliori.
