Stick at it.
Heres why - you dont know what the future holds, and a vocational qualification is one of the most valuable qualifications you can have.
I would give different advice if you were at uni doing a course you didnt like, but you will have a qualification for a skill that will enable you to work when you need to if other shit hits the fan.
I employ electrical installers on my site for over £100 per day - a lot of them our guys who do something else for part of the year, e.g ski instructors, but do the work to pick up cash in the off season.
Also if, as is probably likely, you decide to go travelling, you have a skill that will enable you to get work, so you can rock up anywhere and know you can always get a job if cash is tight.
You might never need to use it, but when your in a position 5 years from now needing cash with no qualifications, youw will be damn glad you have that qualification
