    Rut!

    Nothing yet for me, as far as daylight hour buck activity, seen a lot of scrapes but no chasing activity or deer at all for that matter. I've been hunting Elma, NY (9F), 8G and 9P (a little).
  3. Aslo, be happy that you have some time off to hunt, I'm going thru a job transition now, and may get a week off starting 11/14
  4. Cabin fever, first you should consider the stat that 90% of jobs filled never get posted, and consider how to join that 90%. I'm glad an example of this just took place 2-3 posts above me and you may get lucky because of your connections! Use your current network and network like crazy. Use LinkedIn and look at your friends' friends and try to get intro's, ask the guy/girl to take them out for a coffee to talk about him/her and his/her business, find out their interests before hand (bonus). Focusing on them will help show that you are interested and the goal isn't just for your own satisfaction. Also, another thing that has helped me, copy and paste all of the highly desired jobs you are applying for in an excel spreadsheet, look at the requirements and re-occurring responsibilities, functions, desired traits/skills. Try to line your resume up exactly to those that you are applying for, over time you will see a trend and should have an idea where your resume falls on the needs spectrum of your desired field. It's about matching your experience to their needs. One last thing that always helps, follow up with mailed letters with your resume attached again after any conversation, interview or interaction you had. If you have good hand writing, hand written is most genuine. You are showing that you're willing to go above and beyond. Keep in mind, I've only used these tactics for dales jobs and I don't have experience working construction, industry or union. Maybe there is more you can learn and funding available to learn another skilled trade, jobs usually come from education programs too, however that is not short term of course. Good luck to you! I'm in buffalo and will keep my eye out, reply if I find anything. Jon
