Bro, the more experience you have, the more you realize how little you know.
The true professional aviator is humble, willing to learn, and completely in touch with his/her limits and shortcomings. I feel I have more to learn now than I did as a private pilot.
I would never, EVER let my family fly in your airplane. I highly doubt you could pass an interview with your attitude, regardless of your total time.
Sit down, shut up, and try to improve yourself until such time as you are competitive for an interview somewhere. And count yourself lucky if you can get an interview
anywhere.
There are no shortcuts, and there is no fast track to a $300,000/yr job, which is apparently what you're angling for. Everyone pays his/her dues. And so will you.
Have you considered a more suitable career for yourself outside of aviation? If not, I strongly urge you to do so. I am not optimistic about your chances of living--much less succeeding--as a pilot.
And lastly...switch to decaf, Twitch.
