Default RE: Hunting or new job?

I guess I'll offer the dissenting opinion. Iworked in a job that I grew to hate, before changing a year ago. The ONLY saving grace of my former job was that my days were short andsomewhat flexible. (ie; In part, it allowed me to hunt alot.) But dissatisfaction ina man's job, coupled with a modest outlook in future salary potential left no room to stay. The job Iaccepted took several months of driving 1 hr 40 minutes each way to train under a senior engineer, required longer working hours, and cut my potential hunting hours in half. A year later, I'm working 10 minutes from home out of the company's main office, have quite a bit of flexibility regained, salary potential is beyond anything I could have imagined with my former employer, I enjoy my job, and oh yes...I plan on hunting quite a bitTHIS season. Point is, don'tmake decisions based ona short-sighted view of your future.
