>> Rather than waiting for someone to order me some work, i tried finding one.
Is "to find" not appropriate in this context?

Hello there [이름], since you used the -ing tense for the first verb \"waiting\" \"finding\" should also be in the -ing form because they need to be synchronized in tense. For example:
1.) Rather than me eating a lot, I tried drinking more instead.
2.) I was wanting to read but then I went driving.
I am sure now you got it. =) See you in class.
