My manager takes credit for being involved in my projects / and often my work output to executive level leaders at our company, but doesn’t help at all. How do I confront him about this?!

Many requests get sent to both my manager and I….I do all the work and send the results to leadership, but when it comes time for a meeting, my manager often speaks like he was very involved in the project when he didn’t touch it. I have a good relationship otherwise, but how do I confront him about this?!

I have been giving a few interviews lately and every Company is asking me to confirm if i can get my NP reduced from 90 Days to 45 or 60 Days.

Am i making a mistake to ask and confirm about NP even before my offer letter or its ok to just enquire what's the process and possibility to reduce NP as we have buyout option too.

I was hired within the last year as a site supervisor. I did well my first few projects with the company. They asked if I’d be interested in transitioning into a construction manager role. I agreed. Now I still am the site supervisor on projects but I’m also doing all the construction manger duties on the project as well. Essentially 2 jobs for one salary. We have yearly reviews in December but no talks of raise have been discussed. Any help on approaching this to my boss?
