Talk with the person who hired you. Just tell them the truth.
Normally, it is accepted practice to give 2 weeks notice before quitting a job, but if you hate your job that much then few people are going to want you to stay around. If you have a negative motivation for your job then you are far more likely to make mistakes and just not care.
The first month of a job is usually the trial period to see if you can meet the expectations of the company, and if it is a right fit for you. I would rather have to hire a temp, or go without than have an employee who is miserable because of their job.
You can tell your employer the truth; "I am sorry I just hate working here. I don't want to do this kind of work and I am afraid that I will have to quit. I am willing to stay on for a while, but I really don't want to." Chances are they will let you go, unless they really need someone to do the work. In that case they we need you to stay until they can find your replacement. If you only worked there for two days then your employer probably still have other people that they might want to hire.

It doesn't look good on your resume to quit a job after two days and it is a bit unethical. It is expensive for companies to hire a new employee, and by quitting two days later, you are not allowing the company to get any benefit out of the hire. They are more than likely losing quite a bit of money off of you. This will make employers in the future hesitant to hire you because they see a potential for loss in their investment. I would stick it out for at least 6 months to a year. You really haven't had it that long so maybe it will get better. Also, sticking it out for a year will make you a stronger person.

Depends on how long you can financially afford to be without a job. If you can go a few weeks on savings or have a family member that can help you out, then go ahead and quit. If you need the job to pay the bills and put food on the table, then keep the horrible job you have and start looking for another job and then quit after you know that you have the new job.

Yes, you can, but it won't look good to your employer and potential employers if they find out. And, if your current employer had spent for your hiring or given you something at the start of employment, they may get reimbursement from you. Nevertheless, if you are not happy, leave but do it professionally, that is, don't just disappear but talk to your supervisor. Next time, don't just jump into any job but take your time to assess whether it's a job and employer that you like.

Unless you signed an employment contract promising to stay for a particular length of time, you can quit if you want to.
If you're applying for a job where written communication is needed, you might want to work on your spelling.

First of all, you can quit a job at any time. If your in contract there will be legal issues, but you can still quit.
In my opinion you should find another job first, but if money if not an issue, just quit now and save yourself and them the hassle.

You can leave at anytime you want, but if you plan to use your current employer on your resume, I'd give advance notice (2 weeks) to your current employer that you intend to leave. In reality, since you've only been there a short period of time, I wouldn't even ever use your current employer on a resume.
If you plan to leave without notice, do not consider putting your current employer on your resume. Future employers may contact your previous places of employment and would find good reason not to employ you if they find you to be unreliable based on your willingness to quit so soon.

You should wait and see if you get the other job before you quit the other one.

Good plan, apply for the other one.
If you get the job... quit the other one.
