NathanL,
If you'd rather be doing something else....... then it's a job. Never had one and never wanted one. I try to make sure that my passion remains just that, and not something I do for pay. I pace myself. I suffer from SDD (shooting deficit disorder). I think I'm terminally afflicted. Shootin' and killin stuff assuages the symptoms. Consequently I shoot weekly and hunt monthly. Still, as a wise man once said, " A man's gotta know his limitations.

Yup, someoen will call me a heretic on this site but honestly I'm starting to get burned out a little and might actually take this year off from deer hunting. The year out of high school I hunted every day but 2 of Louisiana's 60 day deer season. In college I got paid to shoot does on permits. Also in college I had a red card collection permit to harvest does for research. Now I get more tags than I could ever possibly fill.
Maybe take a year or two off and go back to more hunting and less killing.
