An update on my fiasco as members have been so kind as to reply.
Spoiler for Hidden as a courtesy as it's a bit lengthy:

That's really a hell of a lot happening, ISB, but at least some of it is good. I hope things work out for you. I wonder if you ever considered writing an account of your experiences as a book to be published? You've certainly got an interesting story and, while you would probably not want to go into all the personal details, I think people would read it. Might be another thing to look at.
Glad you're keeping positive and as Mr. Micawber says, something is bound to turn up. The Universe can't ignore people like you.

Do you think my method of constantly calling back a place and bothering them to check on the status of your application would work in these fields like they work for me in general labor/production/warehouse work?

It's agonizing to say the least.

I got so ****ed up on 420 off of just cbd tea and two gummies. I got cbd tea at this hipster spot it was okay and calmed me down a bit but meh I didn't feel much from it. Then I had a phone meeting and after it was done took my gummies and completely forgot I had a second meeting to attend in person. I was fine for most of the meeting but near the end of it the gummies hit so ****ing hard. I just wanted to go home instead of trying to pretend that I'm not high out in public.

The first stage of my home repair is confirmed for Thursday. It's raining all day every day until then so hopefully the damage doesn't spread too much with the exposed beams.
In the first hour of the week, I resolved and implemented an expanded job search to include local non-remote positions to overcome the challenge of applying for remote work where I'm competing with hundreds of applicants. I found ten potential job matches, then drafted and submitted ten cover letters and resumes and applied to each. The two local results I found were records clerk positions for area law firms, which showed promise as I've built a paperless workflow automation system for a local law firm and provided hands-on training for all users. I hope that impresses them and wins their confidence in me. Then I coordinated with the Program Manager for the five artificial intelligence events I'm hosting this summer. I'll repeat the process Wednesday for any new qualifying job listings posted since my last login. Eventually someone has got to hire me. I'm anxious about hosting the five AI events, but so far the response to my research has been overwhelmingly positive so I hope they go well. I'm also trying to plan something special for my birthday, but everything is up in the air as I will hopefully have a new job before then.

I had to read Batlord's post 3 times to understand he was referring to farting. My brain was trying to figure out why the discovery of the presence of customers would mean Batlord had to work really hard all of a sudden.
