How Good at Math Does a Programmer Need to Be? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm working my way to a CS degree and am currently slogging my way through an 8-week Trig course. I barely passed College Algebra and have another Algebra and two Calculus classes ahead of me.

How much of this will I need in a programming job? And, more importantly, if I suck at Math, should I just find another career path?

Statistics is also important in a lot of areas if your doing data analysis.
