I'm used to the Ipad with the auto spellcheck so bear with me......
It sounds like you are about ready to give up.
I would highly suggest you finish everything now.
It is always easier to 're-activate' then to gain.
I had a FAA CPL-IR and didnt fly for 5 years.
Took a lot less work to get it recurrent then to try and get all of it done on short notice.
As mentioned earlier, you will NOT get a job not having the licenses and ratings.
You MAY get a job if you hold them.
So one is an absolute and one is a maybe.
As I said earlier you can continue using your IR during your GA flying.
It will only make you a safer pilot.
Good luck whatever you choose.
