So, obviously the OP can fly an aircraft in the weather, shoot an approach, and land an aircraft safely. He just needs further civilian training and the certificates. Basically, thats' what an airline pilot does. When you upgrade to the left seat, then you become the master of dozing off and having pick of the crew meal.
Bingo! We have a winner

I have been in professional aviation since 1988- starting with UPT.

Four of the best pilots I have ever flown with are/were UPT washouts.
All from the late 80's, early 90's time frame.

To the OP- if you're still reading after 6 pages of bull****, hang in there. Keep working hard. You can still make a living as a professional pilot. Especially now.
