Can I apply for a job that would require frequently missing Sunday Mass?

[Lief_Erikson]

I’m unemployed and looking for work. I’ve found a full time job possibility that involves clearing trails in forests and taking care of the environment in the wilderness for five months. During this period, I would spend weeks on end camping with a team in the wilderness doing concentrated environmental work, probably far from any church and without the time to attend. Would it be wrong for me to try getting this job, considering that it would keep me away from Sunday Mass for suspended periods of time?
