Hi Treeshaver,
sorry to hear such bad news. Keep on trying.
As soon as you get into this business its worth it. I know, it is hard from your point of view right now, but don't give up. Things can change from one day to another.
I was looking for a cockpitjob for nearly three years (with a type rating, just as you probably) - and then one afternoon there was this phonecall from abroad: "We are looking for an F/O, do you want to give it a try? When are you able to join a simulator screening? Tomorrow? Very good, see you tomorrow..." And this was my step into "this game". I couldn't believe it and I thought it's a bad joke. But in meantime I am long haul F/O and I really enjoy this job.
Until now I have spent nice and ugly times in this job and not everything is easy - but in a whole I would do it again. So don't give up!
