Any Gems of Advice

Hello Gents

I am a UK citizen in need of some ideas. I have been unemployed now for 18 months and I have knocked on doors in several countries (Dubai, Indonesia and Singapore) in an attempt to get a job. I stupidly payed for a TR on an NG in an attempt to become more marketable, but I keep coming up against the same old story...'we need 500 hours on type'.

Basically, Ive run out of ideas. I am happy to do anything just to get a foot in the door... something along the lines of,working in ops at a corporate gig to prove my worth, but anything anyone can suggest would be much appreciated.

I have the following for my sins...

FAA ATP B737 PIC
4100 TT
1100 Multi PIC
700 Multi Turbine (Beech 99)
Tons of instruction in the usual SE puddle jumpers.

Ideally I would like to get a flying spot, but if anyone knows of a good way to get into a company for another role, I would like to hear from them too. I know a little lateral thinking is needed in this economic climate and I would be interested to hear from anyone who has worked 'some magic' during this downturn.

Thanks for your time
