if you were high on a rock by your cave with a good view, you knew you were safe.

But you also knew that you had to go on the hunt again tomorrow.

So do you: it’s called a job.

And you still have to worry about traffic/accidents, performing well, getting fired or laid off, getting berated by customers/clients/bosses, plus any number of additional anxiety-inducing events.

Most of us would probably still take that trade, though: at least sitting all day kills you slowly relative to a mountain lion.

Hunt? More likely gathering.
