HOW is performance artist the least voted. "If you want to stay alive, make them laugh" has got to be the oldest advice in humanity. And boredom has to be older than paying for anything else.

I bet every tribe probably had the one guy who sucked at hunting but was really funny or storyteller so they let him eat. And he's older than the prostitute profession because "consent" was probably, um, 'invented' way after.

I actually wonder under what conditions labour can divide into distinct professions, in which case I vote shaman.

Labor is interestingly fungible even when the activities are varied. I think a profession emerges when work makes you as much as you make work. That generally means second-order tool-making I think. Shaping other humans is one kind. Making tools to make tools is another.
