When it rains...

You know the rest of the line "It pours"
So I had a relaxing enough weekend in Chicago, But instead of making a happy fun journal about how I'm feeling back on top of things and feeling allright NOPE I don't get to do that.
Because the State of MN is throwing me a fucking wicked screwball. In the form that they are Auditing my Unemployment due to suspicion of UI Fraud.
I've done nothing wrong. I've reported all my earnings with my contractor for the week I did work this summer and again for the week that I was just employed for right now.
Audit is perhaps the absolute worst thing a private citizen can recieve. It can get pretty nasty and they can take as much time as they want to perform said audit. It may also leave a red flag that I was audited on my personal credit record whether or not they cleared my name.
The best case scenerio: I provide them with a paystub to prove the hours I worked. it takes them X weeks/months to do all the administrative work and then reactivate my account, long after I needed that money to pay my bills. No apoligies just a pat on the back and then backpay which comes way too late to be useful.
The worst case... well... lets not even think about the worst case. Its another long really bad Legal word starting with the letter "B" :/
I'm not sure what to do. The only thing that could possibly save me is a rollover IRA which if I receive said funds will further complicate this Audit. .
But it would be money, if and when it arrives, to pay off my bills. If I don't get that or can't get employed in the next month...
That nasty "B" word becomes a very frighting possibility which means:
-No More Car
-Garnished wages for years
-Huge black mark on my credit
That's the worst case scenario. The best case is I get no unemployment, the audit takes less then a month and I figure out some way of paying next months bills off. Either that Red-Tape IRA gets cashed and sent to me... or I start selling off camera gear and raise enough money to get me by for however long it takes my UI to clear or get a job.
Which in the end, is not the worst thing in the world. But its certainly not ideal either.
Looks like it may be time to suck it up and work in a call center again... :/

Good luck Sir.
*facepalm*
I would say that if you have any option to get a job until this is fixed, that would be better than possibly losing money (and opportunity to do business) by selling your equipment...
