Well if you work for only one guy or association, that might be the case (Which sounds like the problem here for most. And we wonder why there is a shortage?). I have accepted games for this coming year for over 10 people and that is not everyone I could work for. So if one does not like the restrictions or expectations I set for myself, then someone else can use me, trust me on that one. One assignor does not give a darn what someone else expects to work in their conference, they hire who they want and makes them look good. And there are assignors because of their stubbornness get replaced all the time. Even the people I work for have their individual expectations and standards too. And some I will not work for because it is not worth it to me. I am willing to travel too, but not if you do not respect my concerns. And what is funny these are often never discussed, I just do not go anywhere for a lot of reasons.

Peace
