Looking for advice. Joined my current firm few months back (6 to be precise). When I joined I was put into a internal role as a lead. I work with 2 SMs having 2 diff goals. In due time I showed interest into taking up the role of one SM as a career progression since he is moving out. But to my surprise the outgoing SM supported the other leads for that role internally but on face value supported me. I am from consulting and for the past few weeks I expressed interest to my career coach contd.

about moving out of the role to client facing since I saw that my role is not materializing. Now the SM thinks I am too early for the role and he is rolling me off. My guess is that he came to know about my interest in looking for client projects and just took the opportunity to roll me off. I recently started grad school and he mentioned that saying that now that I am studying too it may not be a good idea to take this role as that would require time commitment. I am now blaming myself on why I didnot take the first step of moving out. I told my PL about my roll off but I am concerned that SM will provide feedback on future role that I showed interest and not on what work I am currently doing. What should I do? should I keep my partner and HR in confidence? how do I document these ?

You are afraid your SM would retaliate? Why do you think that?

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?
