Actually I think if you can afford it, you're not in too bad of shape if you can get on with one of the regionals. With the forecasted retirements, there should be a lot of movement in the next decade. Spend a couple years building your time at the regionals/cargo/or whoever will hire...and you should be in the running in a few years for the majors. Key thing after you start building your ME time is to get some turbine PIC.....so upgrade as soon as you can....

Check out the guard/reserves.....most units send 1-2 dudes to pilot training a year.....though, the process will probably take 2-4 yrs to get in a position to get a civilian gig, but it's worth checking out and you'll get great time for the logbook....usually there's C-130/KC-135 units looking.....check out baseops.net jobs page....
