I'm 3 days into my job and I already hate it

I recently started working after a long period of unemployment. I have a Master's degree in Finance from a top university in my country with a great GPA. My Bachelor's was in Management and it went really bad, I took a long time to graduate and my GPA was below average, which was the main reason I decided (and was "pushed" by my parents) to go straight into my Master's.

My job is "Management Control", my tasks have nothing to do with 1) what I thought they would be (which is completely my fault for not doing the proper research on the job, for someone who studied Finance not doing my due diligence sounds like I'm just an idiot) 2) what I want to long term 3) with what I studied in the latter part of my academic life and what motivated me to be one of the best in my class. I basically check the accounting data on an ERP, copy and paste the data to Excel and check for deviations on the budget and last year's data. It's something I'm finding completely boring and meaningless compared to the projects I was doing during my Master's regarding both Financial Markets and Corporate Finance. I have a huge list of terrible decisions throughout my life and I'm afraid accepting this job was one more. I'm feeling like I have no direction and that I wasted my time getting my degree(s). I feel like I chose the worst field to work in and I should have listened to everyone who said I should just follow my dad's career (doctor before he retired, everyone in my family except for him was "pushing" me to become a doctor; he always said to do what made me happy, which I'm not doing and which I thought I was pursuing during my Master's).

Cons: I don't want my boss' job, I don't think my current job will help me getting into the "industry" I want (other than being "work experience"), the pay is close to minimum wage (which is pretty standard here for a first job, smfh..), I haven't smiled or felt motivated to do anything at home since I started and I honestly think it's affecting my personal relationships both with my friends and my parents.

Pros: It's work experience, we don't usually work overtime (which considering I'm not motivated to do anything other than sitting at my laptop at home isn't very relevant other than not being there looking at invoices)

Currently there are 0 entry level Finance/ Investment Banking openings in my town and I'm really hesitant of moving for 2 reasons: 1) my father is 82 years old (I'm 26) and I'm kind of afraid of being away from him for obvious reasons. 2) we have a farm and I'm growing more and more attached to it (it's the opposite direction from where the "Finance" jobs are and I'm pretty sure I'd just stay there for most of the time).

Can someone just give me some advice? I'm feeling completely lost right now and can't think straight (although my past shows that thinking is not my strong suit).
