Perhaps you spilled coffee all over your customers or your boss told you that you have to work weekends for a while.  When times on the job get rough, use your breaks to get away for a bit.   Instead of having lunch in the office, go off site. Take a walk around the block when you have five or ten minutes to yourself. When life gets overwhelming, don't keep your feelings inside.  Take a notepad and write down all the issues you're having. Getting it out can help you process the problem and figure out what steps to take to fix it.  For instance, you might write down that your coworker got an attitude with you as soon as you came to the office.  You might add that you had to work outdoors and it rained all day. Journaling your problems is even more effective if you look back on it later when you are less stressed and try to come up with possible solutions. Identify someone, whether a family member or a friend, and call them up to vent. Get advice if you'd like or just use this time to express your frustrations. You might call up your spouse and say “Hey honey, do you have a minute?  I wanna talk about something that bothered me at work and I want to see what you think about it.” Music is a temporary distraction from the negativity that might surround you.  If you have your own office, shut the door and listen to a few songs to lift your mood. If you don't have your own space, use headphones. If you can't listen to music at work, take a restroom break and listen to a song. Instead of continuing to be down in the dumps, find a way to smile. Funny YouTube videos can be a great distraction to a bad work day.  Revisit some of your old favorite videos or look for funny memes. Try to limit your time watching videos to ten minutes or less. Though laughter can be helpful, sometimes you just need a good cry.  When you feel the tears coming, step away as quickly as you can to the nearest restroom. Take a few moments to cry and then pull yourself together.  Blow your nose and splash your face with cool water to get rid of your puffy eyes and red face. If you're able, you might consider going to your car for a small break. Perhaps your boss was not pleased with your latest project or you received a less than stellar end of year review.  Rather than sulking, identify some quick tasks that you can complete. This will boost your confidence and get you motivated to continue working despite the bad news. You might do something like respond to emails, clean your desk, or check your voicemails. Build some momentum with these tasks to help yourself continue throughout the day.

You can purchase a variety of different camouflage online, at hunting stores, or in most sporting goods stores. Purchase a camo shirt, pants, gloves, hat, and jacket. This will help you blend in with your surroundings and can prevent you from scaring away ducks.  If you are hunting in an area with wheat stalks or dead grass, a lighter camo is perfect. If you are hunting in an area with a lot of foliage, plants, and bushes, a greener camo is ideal. Dark black or brown camo is best in wooded areas. Decoys are hollow plastic models that float in the water and resemble ducks. If you know what species of duck you’re hunting, get a decoy that’s the same species to attract them to your hunting site. If you’re unsure of what kind of ducks you’re hunting, mallard decoys will typically attract most species of ducks. You can purchase a duck call at a hunting or sporting goods store. Using certain calls will attract ducks to your location, making it easier for them to shoot. Duck call whistles are typically the easiest for first-time hunters to use because you can just blow in them and don’t have to make a specific noise when using them. 12-gauge shotguns are the standard for duck hunting. You’ll have to decide whether you want to purchase a semi-automatic or a pump-action model. Popular duck hunting guns include the Remington 870, Winchester Model 12, and Browning BPS.  Pump action shotguns require you to cock back the gun before every shot. 20-gauge shotguns are typically used by young hunters while 10-gauge shotguns are popular for goose hunting. Lead bullets are considered toxic and cannot be used to hunt ducks. Steel, bismuth, tungsten, and other non-toxic shells should always be used when duck hunting. 3-inch (7.6 cm) shots are the most common shell size that’s used when hunting ducks.  Try out different brands of shells and determine which ones you like using the best. Popular brands include the Hevi-Shot Speed Ball, Remington HyperSonic Steel, and Kent TealSteel. A sleeve will fit around your gun and will keep it clean while you’re walking around the hunting site. Dirt and debris can get in your gun and cause it to jam, making a gun sleeve necessary if you’re hunting in mud or dirt. Waders are water repellent overalls that will keep your body dry. If you're hunting over a lake, you'll have to wade out into the water to retrieve downed ducks. Boots will prevent your shoes and socks from getting wet. This is critical if you plan on hunting in the cold weather. You can typically purchase waders in a similar camo as the rest of your gear.
