Miner, Botanist, or Fisher: which one should I go for first?

[Travel]

So, here's my issue; I was looking to level one of the three jobs up to level 80, to unlock a certain Beast Tribe in Endwalker. The problem is, I'm not entirely sure which one I should go for first; I was planning on leveling every job eventually, but I'm not too sure which one I should start with.

I was mostly looking at which one would be the easiest/fastest; I don't quite have as much free time as I'd like to have these days, so I was trying to prioritize. I was considering Botanist, but if Miner or Fisher is faster/easier to level, then I'd like to know.

Between Ocean Voyages and Diadem, Fishing is probably the fastest to level. Make certain to have Company/Commercial/Squadron Survival manual buffs active when you can (Survivial will stack with either of the other two, the other two do not stack with each other).

Fishing is far more like a hobby than an effective gathering profession though. There are relatively few fish worth selling to crafters. Sometimes there's more profit to be made from selling fish to other Fishers for leves and Grand Company Provisioning missions.

Fishing is the easiest to level, and the least "useful" to have. Most fish are worthless, and some are an outright pain to catch on top of that. Fishing is also the only gathering class that has a heavy RNG factor. With that said, fishing is a mini-game unto itself. The other two just go out to where they know the resources are from and decide what to bring back and how many - very shallow gameplay. Fishing doesnt give you all the answers(this can also be seen as a negative if you want). You need to find the right fishing hole to get what you want, find the right bait to use there, in some cases find out how to get the specific fish to appear, then once you cast your line you need to time your skill usage to catch whatever fish went for your bait. Theres optimizing you can do by learning bite timings and when to use your other skills. If you enjoy it, theres something there. Aside from fishing, miner and botanist are basically equal. The only difference is which crafting classes primarily depend on them.

On a practical aspect, I'd say to level both BOT and MIN at the same time.

But as mentioned, FSH does level really quickly, especially with ocean voyages.

Thanks for the suggestions guys; looks like Fishing is going to be my best option. In fact; I think it's actually a good thing that it's the "least useful"; means getting the annoying one out of the way first, and leaves the more useful Botanist and Miner to run later, alongside the DoHs. I wasn't joking when I said I was wanting to try and level every job.
