try being a teacher's aid from the board of education or from any day care, go to unemployment and find jobs there, work as a sales' associate, paralegal, take college courses to better yourself and the your future so you will not be stuck at those miserable waitress jobs. IT is perefectly normal to dislike and hate your job especially when it is stressful ,boring, and pays minimum wage and you ahve a boss as a jerk.

enroll in community college or something first,but in the meanwhile, try doing retail, your still standing on your feet but it may be better than being a waitress.or you can even try to become a waitress at a night club or something like that,i heard working those kinds of places can be fun and lucrative.

It is soooo normal. But you can fix it. You are only young and it's good to have a crap job you don't care about - easier to ring in sick or go in with a giant hangover. (Which is what you should be doing at your age!)
Variety is the key - the more things you try the easier it will be for you to eventually settle on a job you like.

get some college behind you .. and then sample different fields of interest. i've worked corporate jobs, am a personal chef, web designer for OSHA, actor in movies, worked in advertising, designed fashion and actually sold it, artist .. etc etc ... there's no right or wrong way about it ... but you do have a lot of options.
I change careers every 2-3 years. I get bored easy.

yes, it's normal to hate a job
If you can afford it take part-time classes in an area that you're interested in (beauty industry, medical coding, whatever)
Or take business management classes at a community college and become a manager of a restaurant,if you like the business but not the job

I think you can definitely change fields if you hate your line of work - try to find something you enjoy doing! And if you can't make the switch right away, do what it takes (education, interviews, etc) to get to it.

Read a book - Fountain Head by Ayn Rand.

It is. Hating your job gives you ambition to better yourself and get to a position in life where you love what you do. Everyone should have a job they hate at least one in life, makes you a better person.
