It looks as though I will never find out what it's like to work in a juvenile prison. I needed to have a special certificate (which I had, but have misplaced). I could not get a copy from either the government or my former employer. So I lost the first day job I've been offered. I am fairly upset about this because the timing was perfect; I'm out of money and really needed to make a good impression. Clearly this was not the way to go about it. So I am once again unemployed, and scrambling. I don't know why no one can get me a copy; the government was able to give me a number but the employers weren't willing to accept that in lieu of the actual piece of paper. So I am very frustrated now.
Last night had a brilliant meeting with my two musical directors for the play. They are so talented I felt a bit overwhelmed. However, I hope that our combined talents along with my drive will make this a great play.
Without this job I was counting on, I am not sure how I am going to go about renting my studio space or paying rent in general. Finding work here is as difficult as anywhere else, except that I also have the added problem of being from overseas. I am feeling pretty discouraged because although everything else is going well, I really need to have a day job for everything to work out.
