So I finally got a job...

My parents have been bitching at me for weeks to find a job. Everyday they come home and are like "Did you look for a job today? or Did you get a job today?".
Well yesterday a place finally called me and had me come in for an interview. It's a place called Purple Haze. It's basically a beach store that sells clothes and souvenirs. It also has a back room that sells pipes, bongs, dildo's, porn, etc... Well, my dad came in my room at 6:30 this morning, wakes me up and tells me that he'd rather not have me working up there. He said something about it making him nervous because I have to deal with money or some stupid bull shit like that. I can't really remember because I was half way asleep.
Regardless, he doesn't want me working there. I personally think it's retarded because I FINALLY got a job and now he wants me to quit. I'm 20 years old and I should be able to work where ever I damn please. I start today at 2 o'clock and I need the shroomery's advice on whether or not I should show up.

Just to play Devil's advocate, think of it from your father's perspective. Someone asks: "Hey hows your kid doing?". His reply: "He's works at the porn and drug paraphenelia shop downtown".
Then consider the negative connotations associated with such places. I personally could care less, and I obv. don't know your father's viewpoints, but it's just something to consider.

Well I did talk to him but I was half way asleep.
I'm about to call him right now and find out his real reasoning behind it.

He didn't want to talk about all of it over the phone but he basically said he thought it was more like a tourist store - not a head shop. He's coming home in a few and we'll talk about it more in depth I guess.

Take the job, and then look for another one while working there. Finding a job is like trying to find a GF - it's easier to find one if you already have one

I can't believe you even have to ask. Working in a head shop would be a dream job for me.

No need to be harsh... I do respect my parent's opinion but I just wanted to get a second opinion from you guys.
We just talked it out a minute ago and I told them to come in and take a look around so they can see that it's not as bad as they think.
I'm glad I can talk to them and they actually listen. 
I'm going in at 2pm so wish me luck.

Sorry, meant to motivate more than just call you a pussy 
Yes, parents should be respected, however they should also respect their children's right to make their own life decisions when they come of age and maturity to do so.
How I would handle the situation:
Approach my parent(s) and tell them I want the job and ask them what their problem with me having that job is. I'd then tell them why I want the job. I'd then explain to them the benefits of having this job over not having one at all. Also, if the job is really better than most other ones you can get right now then why the fuck not go for it?
Good luck today (I know its already past 2pm, but fuck it, good luck anyway).

Work and save enough money. Then move out so you don't have to deal with them that much anymore.

Hell yeah.
I'm going to college and they pay for everything. It's a smart move on my part. 
Plus my parents are really cool for the most part.

Dude, you're 20 years old, it's your life to live, not your fucking parent's. Take it.
