i think its telling that the only person who really agrees with you is admittedly not a part of a professional work place

it was increadibly rude and unprofessional for you to ask a person about their degree status. its not any of your business, and its not going to be any of your business until you are a manager overseeing her.

i also agree with your manager calling you out on it.

i thought about this for a little bit, and i was about to say that i thought it would be slightly (very slightly) ok if you guys were going for the same position and she won it, but then i completely decided against it. if she got a position that you did not get, it would be appropriate for you to ask your manager what made her more qualified for the job than you, and what improvements can you make to ensure that you will not be passed up the next time a position comes up. but beyond that, its not really any of your business.

at my company i've seen mba's passed up more than a few times for promotions for just bachelors degree holders. why? because the people who earned the promotion spent the time working their asses off to get their promotion.

maybe you should spend less time worrying about other people, and spend more time working towards your next career step
