You could do what most have done over the last 40-50 years and start with an instructing job. You will mature your understanding of flying and gain alot personally in my experience.
Sure it's crap money but at least it's crap money for flying an aircraft as opposed to doing nothing other than get out of currency etc.
You don't come out of med school and go straight into brain surgery and you should expect early on to get the same response.
Would i have taken a job in a shiny jet at 225 hours you bet, and good luck if you get it. It still is a thrill to get paid to fly however small the aircraft and i still remember climbing into a PA38 thinking"XXXX me i'm being paid to fly one of these as opposed to shelling out myself" Great feeling
