I'm looking for an easy way to find the current directory location of my

pass command line args.
So, do you want to find out, where your script is living, or the directory from
which it was called (the "working directory")?
The former can be found out like this:
Assuming cron calls your script with the full path name (which should be the
case because it uses the shell to execute your script):
import os, sys
mydir = os.path.dirname(sys.argv[0])
When you want the current working directory:
import os
mydir = os.getcwd()
Then to get the path to your config file, either:
config_path = os.path.join(mydir, 'config.ini')
