Or get a good corporate job and stay there!

Another option is to hop onto a carrier that hires street captains and fly there for a year to build PIC time.

I think that with your total time and PIC you're probably going to have a difficult time landing a job with a legacy or other major simply because there are so many folks that have 5000-6000 hrs & 1000+ PIC at the regionals that are looking to move on.

That might change though as more carriers open application windows and start drawing from the regional ranks. The big thing working against you right now is probably recency of experience. Find a way in, and then work on landing a better job as you progress. It's always easier to find a flying job when you're actually flying.
