As a math major, I'm tired of people thinking I'm some kind of human calculator that can figure out things in a couple seconds

For context my parents wanted me to be a lawyer or doctor but since I chose math (it's my passion) they now expect me to be a calculator and figure out their sales tax, year taxes, stock market investment trends. Not to mention my friends that somehow want me to figure out what 1278 * 5742 equals within 1 second and if I don't I'm a failure and picked the wrong career.
