A lot of people here have excellent points about how algebraic concepts are used in lots of modern professions, but I do want to point out that learning is about stretching your muscles, so to speak.

When you want to run a 5k, do you train just for a 5k? No, you work on running 10k. You lift weights in the gym when you are practicing for a football game even though you won’t be lifting on the field.

You may never need more than basic arithmetic in your adult life, but if you’ve practiced with higher concepts, the lower-level stuff is easier for you.
