Just reading your post OP makes it abundantly clear you have no business being a pilot. Clear and blatant demonstration that you lack in situational awareness, common sense, aircraft control, and general ability.
Worst part is these excuses. They’re absurd and hilarious. “It was bumpy so I leveled off into straight and level flight during final approach on an IAP with a DPE next to me” WHAT? Come on.
I’d hang up the wings.
Unless you’re a female, then it sounds like you’re exactly what they’re looking for at Mainline

Besides I know plenty of female pilots that could fly circles around you and that off-putting beer gut of yours

I'm gonna take a different angle here. I think if you show up to an interview and act proffesionally by owning all of your checkride failures, you'll have a fair shot at getting an offer.
This isn't Delta Airlines, guys. It's a regional.
*Also, it's true, drop the excuses. But ignore all these astronauts on here saying you have no chance. We all make mistakes, even the clown that went on about how you should drop your wings. **** that guy, seriously.
Keep on trucking, brother. Don't give up.

It’s a fact that some, despite “passion for flying” aren’t cut out for it. The reason military pilots have traditionally been preferred is on display here—removed from training without hesitation.

You can have 10 checkride failures and you'll get hired by any of the regionals if you own the failures and have a great attitude.
You can have 1 failure that you blame on "flying through a thunderstorm and severe turbulence on checkride" and you won't get hired.
It's not the number you have, it's how many of them you own.

So, it’s just fine that someone could continue to demonstrate during evaluations a failure to meet standards and be a “professional” pilot? At what point would you consider someone incapable of of succeeding as a pilot?
Ten checkrides at that career stage must be close to every other checkride. That should be unacceptable.
