My bosses know that I am a hunter, but they know that I take my job seriously as well. I dont call in, but I do schedule some vacation time the end of Oct. They know why, and they give me some leway with my schedule in November also, but I dont take advantage of it (not much anyway). I gave up a free turkey hunting trip to Kansas a couple years ago because of inventory and they respected and remember that. I am an assistant manager at Wal-Mart.
