I hear ya man, when I was instructing, I lived even farther away and was in your same situation (no money and a crappy job). There were a few of us who sent out apps to a few places out there and one actually went out there and walked his resume. He got a job on the spot and none of us even got a call. He did call ahead to make sure some were even hiring. In the end it was worth it for him, he was getting 80-100 hours and months and we were still getting 40 if we were lucky.
It's also getting that time of year to be thinking about banners tow operations. There are a few operator in Hollywood, FL (HWO). Aerial Banners and Van Wagners. The pay seemed pretty dang good at Van Wagners and lots of flight time in a hurry. Just an option! Just be careful and choose your operation wisely, there quite a few shadeballs out there.
Goodluck bro, it's rough but it will get better!
