Just a thought from me - I looked into working in the dive industry when I was made redundant a while ago. I was (am!) really into diving and thought it would be great. However personally I decided what I actually enjoyed was having diving as a hobby with no pressure (ho ho). In the end I decided I didn't want to dive for a living, I wanted a job that would support my diving, family, etc.

If you really want to work in the industry then I'm sure you'll get a job and be very happy - there are plenty who are, but it sounds like you won't be raking it in.

I wonder whether it's more a case that you're just not enjoying your current job but do enjoy diving? Perhaps just look at other career options?
