as the saying goes "do what makes you happy" but sometimes thats a lot easier said than done. So do what you hate, till you find what you want to do and go for it, but dont quit now, find something first

I've always felt that if you don't enjoy something, stop doing it! However, the issue with a job is money. If you are sure you can find another job or an alternate source of income, then yes, quit! If you are unsure, I would explore other options with your place of employment or other people of authority.

What is your job? Why do you say you don't like it anymore? If you were to quit, what would your next step would be?

Think about whether you are in the position to quit and be able to cope with no promise of getting another job straight away. If financially this isn't a realistic option, then look into getting new job to walk into, so that when you quit, you won't have to worry about money as you will have already thought ahead. Make a solid plan first, rather than act on impulse and potentially be worse off.

before you make the huge choice of quitting make sure its the right thing you should do, make sure that you've talked to all the people you can to make it a better work environment and if its still not working out make sure you have another job lined up so when you do leave your all set

It's hard to give advice without many more details on your personal situation. Sometimes quitting a job can pose problems because of financial issues. But sometimes there's enough of a financial cushion to fall back on that you can pursue other jobs. One of the most common things people who dislike their jobs do is send out their resumes to companies and start seeking other employment, and wait to quit their current job until they have a new one available. In addition, if you're having issues with specific people at work, see if you can contact your human resources department to work out the issue.

If you can quit, do it. If you must work to survive, survive. While surviving, try and search for another job that you like, because no one will do this for you.

Whatever would make you the most happy! But make sure you want to quit before you do so, because if not you will have made a mistake.

Well, if I didn't like my job anymore, if I decided to quit, I would make sure that I had another job lined up before I quit so that I would have a job as soon as I quit. That way I would not be jobless while trying to find a new job. I could just switch right over to the new one. But, you should always stop and ask why you don't like it anymore. To evaluate whether it is worth it or not. If I needed the money and it was a good paying job, I wouldn't quit because I would need the money.
