That may be a blessing!
IMHO: Wait it out and get some command time. FO hrs 'only' just isn't a a great basis for making a move right now. [Don't get stuck in a downturn, out of work and with FO time only.] The best contracts are for Captains, and command time gives better choice and agility. Plus, it's just gonna be more satisfying.
Sit back and enjoy a couple more years!
