Indeed. Your resume is just a tool to get your foot in the door, to get that first conversation with a hiring manager or an interview. Extraneous things, like irrelevant experience, get in the way of that. Note this will depend on such things as having enough experience to show you're a generically good employee. If you were a new graduate I'd look favorably on e.g. in high school starting out at entry level in a fast food restaurant and working your way up to, say, shift manager (if you could make it that far, very favorably).
