So, am I on the right track?
Let's see, you have a 4 year degree. Check. Commercial license? Check. You have only 300 hours and you already have a job that doesn't include teaching people how to fly? Way to go! Your new job is really a great way to build up your total time.

If it's your burning desire to steadily move up the pilot food chain, then make contacts along the way as you build up that total time. Eventually you'll be able to move into a light twin and fly that before jumping over to a Regional airline.

So to answer your question, you're doing great! Keep pressing forward. Your only limits are the self-imagined ones in your head.
