Title: Holy wow!! As if I weren't already stoked for next fall, we picked vacations at work!

Unbelievable.

Our vacation picking at work is done like the NFL draft, a pick of a week, one per round based on seniority. Now elk are my passion, and I was able to get the first 25 days of September off.

I know how lucky I am, but I was actually counting on all that.

I was NOT counting on also being able to nab a two week vacation in early November for deer hunting, but ol and behold look what fell Into my lap!!  I am beyond jazzed right now...

That sounds like a great schedule. I'm low man in my department seniority-wise with 36 years, but fortunately, only two of us are bowhunters. Great news for you. though. Congratulations!

Man that is something else.  I feel lucky when I get to take two weeks off in a row.  One time I took three weeks off to travel to S. Africa and when I came back to work my desk chair was gone and there was a toilet in it's place, you can guess where I was for the next two weeks.

Congradulations. I did alright this coming year too... got 4 weeks off in a row in bow season. Now I just have to endure the remainder of the 12 month stretch without any time off.

Same here. You can forget sept-jan at my job, but since i have seniority ive got half of september off as well. I cant wait to get after the elk.
