More rage than sad, but my freelancing account got a random ID check, and I lack one of the required documents, because I get them online instead, and they require a scanned copy as second verification. Had to go through the hassle of getting that done, with a possible fee added while at it just to get a printed copy sent to my house.
So, for the meantime (up to 10 business days until I get it in the mail), no matter the job I find or get invited to, I can't do squat about it (not even a courtesy yay/nay on the job), until I get my document scanned and sent (applications for work redirect me to verification, no exceptions, and no temporary skipping the process either). I doubt they'd accept a JPG conversion of a PDF file, due to technicality (being the pessimist, I always assume people and businesses have the "asshole" option set to 'always on'. With my printer lacking ink, I can't quite print the PDF as a workaround. Plus, I always assume they can somehow tell, even if officially from the site, it's technically "falsified". Play it safe, even if it means absolute inconvenience *grrr*; I hate red-tape.).
Seeing as I'm already in financial doldrums (been weeks since I worked, or even found even a crummy job that would accept paying me the pittance), even with the freelancing market not being cooperative as I'd hoped with things warming up again, I'll probably have to cut my losses again, and put freelancing on the backburner, once more, and see if I can get some basic work again; maybe bar-backing at one of the taverns with the upcoming events or something. Seems par for the course, given my track record. Might as well experiment a scratch-off tactic while at it ($20 invested per-week, 3-$1, 1-$2, 1-$5, and 1-$10. Has a chance to at least break-even, and yields 6 shots at different cost/reward calibers.).
Assuming fate/destiny/life is as much of a dick as I assume it to be, I'm gonna be flooded with, or see tons of actually decent and/or lucrative, and actually fun jobs on the market while I'm incapacitated; while also not even breaking even on the scratch-offs (again, rather par for the course for me). That be the case, I'd like to personally punch God in the face for that. Doesn't help that I tithed when I had no money coming in either (everyone in my family supporting doing so, and me hesitating on it with good reasons). I still won't avert from my faith; I mean, if God really does exist, I want a word with Him personally (if at least to lift the 'Book of Job' punishment off of me; I'm already broke, and my faith isn't being retained or improving, it's fading.). Doesn't help that I still get crap for "not putting in any effort" despite the opposite actually being true.
