regret working first job in restaurant

Wish my parents could have talked me out of it.  They could have handed me a book on trigonometry and told me to just sit home & study it for six months, then
if i could pass their verbal test, they would pay me the $$ i would have made working minimum wage.  a couple thousand bucks back in 1991.  

feasible plan?  do any parents ever do that?  seems like a horrible waste of time working for little money when u could be studying.  

experience was so important to me at the time, but now i know it did not matter at all, esp. in my field, those guys look down on anything that is not like
themselves.

try to study mathematics past early college age.  it's hell.  making $$ becomes more important the older u get, and u want to be practical, as that's the only
way to make $$, and mathematics seems as far from practical as u can get.  when u are real young, it's easier to study it, as u are not too worried about $$,
and that should be the case.  Impressionable age is teens & very early 20s, everything u do at that age will stick to u forever.  

being exposed to those rednecks in the restaurant was horrible for me.  made me a cheap bastard to this day.  worried about petty shit.  also i hate going to
restaurants, haha.  once u see how sausage is made, u never want any.
