The script was still pliable, and both of them were grasping to achieve the fullness of their characters. Danny was memorizing his lines, looking up toward the heavens every time he drew a blank. His riffs bejeweled every line: When the script called on him to invite his daughter in for breakfast, he instead laid out a menu. While running those lines, Lucy pulled over to ask for directions from von Stuelpnagel: Where is her character, emotionally, right now? She’s really, really in there — she’s in there, digging, and that’s part of the whole idea,” Danny said a few weeks later during a break from rehearsals.

☆ How Freddie Mac is helping renters use their on-time rent payments to build credit and achieve homeownership
▼ + stars: | 2022-10-12 | by ( Sponsor Post | Created Insider Studios With Freddie Mac | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +6 min

In this challenging economic environment, Freddie Mac has implemented two new initiatives that can help strengthen renters' ability to build credit and achieve homeownership using their history of on-time rent payments. Yet, unlike homeowners who make regular mortgage payments, renters generally do not see their on-time rent payments reflected in their credit scores. Worse yet, the most common way rent payments impact credit scores are when missed rental payments go into collection. After enrollment, the renter's on-time rent payments are reported to the credit bureaus each month. Since Freddie Mac began this initiative last year, 86,000 households across more than 900 multifamily properties have enrolled.

I didn't have the design and Photoshop skills I do now to create this cover letter. Getting the job after initially getting rejected taught me that sometimes companies aren't rejecting who you are as a candidate — they're rejecting who they think you are on paper.
