Age old debate. Who has more right to the club and deer. Those that work always seem to believe it is them. If a guy pays his dues and work days are not required then there really are no grounds for calling him out. If days are required and someone doesn't that is a bird of a different color. I work in the busiest ER in Alabama and also own 2 businesses. My time is limited as I am sure many others on here is too. I sure don't want to spend the few off days I get working and I am not going to burn vacation for the hunting club unless I am hunting haha. I would just say if there is not rule against what he did, then calling him out however you do it is personal and anyone would have a hard time not seeing it that way. My club doesn't require days or fines, but I pay a "donation" anyway when I can't make a work day. Just my thoughts. Hope everyone has a great season club or not.
You are exactly the type person I am talking about. What if everyone had your attitude? How do you think those plots got planted, magic??? Somebody, or a couple of somebodies had to make it a priority and get it done while you make excuses. Everyone has other things to do, I bet you aren't too busy to hunt.
If he's up front with them that he'll have limited time to work, but is happy to pay extra in lieu of work days, and everyone in his club is ok with that, then what the hell difference does it make to you?
Maybe you and everyone else in your club should have set realistic expectations, and made sure everyone was on the same page prior to the season with those expectations and the consequences of missing out, instead of just kinda making it up as you go and getting your panties in a twist when someone else doesn't do as much work as you feel like you did.
But then, you didn't come here for advice or suggestions on how to handle the situation, you came here with your ass on your shoulders wanting to vent, and now you're frustrated because it's gone sideways on you.
