Loads of people go through exactly the same crap every day but not all of them recognise the fact and are prepared to do something about it so good for you. From the sound of it you are probably just really pissed off with your current employer and what you do on a day to day basis, not necessarily totally pissed off with the line of work you are in. Personally I'd think long and hard before I quit without first having a job to walk into. I have friends who have found it really hard to find work after their companies went under recently. I jacked my job as an Instrument tech many years ago (aged 25 before I was married) and went to university for 3 years, got a degree in Architecture, worked for 2 years for a couple of different architectural practices before realising actually I still wanted to work in Electrical Engineering. I've been back for the last 8 years in a different job and I love it. So my advice is make sure its not just the employer rather than the field of work that's getting you down. You might want to think about combining your interest in graphic design with your IT skills. I have a good friend who worked as game coder on the Amiga, Genesis, PC's etc. back in the day and he got so fed up he jacked his job and worked in a factory for a year or so whilst he built up some business as a freelance website designer. He now supports his wife and kids from web design alone. I'm sure one day you will look back and think "why did I put up with that crap" but for now good luck and keep your chin up. There is no sin except stupidity.
