Probably not. I don't get much time off in the hunting season as a teacher. I get up to 5 personal days per year, and 10 "sick" days. I used zero of each this year (my first year so I'm trying to make an impression). I get ALL of the fishing time I want in the summer, lol, but I would rather have the hunting time off....BUT having ~12-13 weeks of vacation a year is a hard prospect to walk away from just because most of those weeks don't fall during hunting season. I still get out every evening during the week I want, and would rather hunt the evenings anyways.

What are you talking about? Teaching is a great job to have if your a hunter. You get a week for Thanksgiving, two weeks for Christmas, a week for Spring break-Easter (turkey hunting), you have time to hunt after work on many days until the time changes, and like you said, you have the whole summer to fish and get ready for bow season. Your sick-presonal days roll over, so in a few years, you can take off extra days to go hunting. Afterall, you need to get your priorities straight.How long do you you get off on holidays way up there?
Lol, yeah I suppose it's not too bad We don't have anything in season over our Thanksgiving break except the first day of rifle season (hey, I'm not complaining). We usually don't get a spring break, and our PA gobbler season always opens after easter, so that's a no go either. My sick-days do rollover, personal days only roll over for one year then they have to be used or they reset.

But you're right, in a few more years, I will be "sick" more during archery season
