Formerly US Navy, now I’m the Natural Resources Supervisor for a town in South Florida. Hoping to get back out west to Arizona permanently one of these days but it gets with kids, career, etc... fortunate to have a stable and interesting job.

I am a forestry tech for the forest service in Idaho. Get paid to scout 5-6 months out of the year. Don't make much, but I get to be outside everyday.

I’m a project manager/foreman/estimator at my family owned drywall company. Love my job but with the lack of young people willing to work and be trained in a physically demanding job I wonder where the labor force is going to come from. The stress that’s caused with too few employees who are worth a shit makes me think about getting into something different. Possibly real estate or doing home inspections.

I am director of operations at a large collision center. I make great money, but never get to take any time off. I do get Saturday and Sunday off. I really envy my brother who is a school teacher......lots of time off. The older I get the more that is appealing to me.

2nd gen family business. Got out of the service and my father asked if I would come help him out for a few weeks cause he was short handed. That was 8 years ago this month. Started as a diesel mechanic on semis then we opened a second business selling and servicing higher end mowers, tractors, and hay equipment. Luckily my slow times are in the winter months so I get plenty of time off from mid October to March. Come to think of it since it's been 8 years there I think it's time to renegotiate my contract for an extra week of vacation during September for elk season.

Middle school American History Teacher. Summers are jam-packed with scouting, fly fishing and backpacking. A lot of the fall and winter breaks line up well with the upland and waterfowl seasons, not so much with big game.

While I could probably make more money in another industry, its personally fulfilling and the breaks cannot be beaten. This week alone, I have fly fished two major rivers in Colorado, scouted a new antelope location for future hunts and built a new workbench for fly-tying and possible reloading.
