In many ways I agree with qburt, take another job for the time being. Being a designer in my opinion is not about a single medium, but rather is about problem solving. We don't neseccarily have all the tools, but we know how to bring them together and create the experience needed. So any additional outside information, into a large number of proffessions and services can be useful. There are bound to be other things that can make you happy in the short run. Search them out. I've always wanted to work in a book store (I like to read), but never have.
In terms of finding work, maybe you need a different approcah. there is lots of competition in our field, and the demand lately has cut back a bit. I always feel like you need to seperate yourself from the pack, truly. Don't just send out the resume, send out something that will get someone's attention, market yourself in ways you've never seen. Anything is worth a shot, right? I mean, what do you have to lose?
