Not again, The FI

Had a quick search but didn't turn up too much info and I'm sure you guys get fed up of what might seem the same old questions so I'll try to be brief.

I finished my training (CPL,IR,MCC etc) November of last year and since then haven't found any work, which is pretty much the norm for low hour pilots.

I've been exploring all branches, but my family seem to think the FI would be a good route. I kind of agreed to that statement, but i know i don't want to be a teacher as my heart isn't in it, i always wanted airlines (beggers can't be choosers i know)

Would it still be wise to do the FI course and hope that there might be some work after or just to keep my rating current and see what happens coming into 2010? I was considering volunteer work at my local airfield on the mechanical side of things etc just to stay in the game as it were with information on flying, but i don't want to put off potential students of flying if I'm not enthusiastic about teaching them.
