I don't think many of us are in this job to be appreciated by others. I myself officiate because I love it. I love the game, and because I may lack some skill, I still want to be apart of it. I don't care if every coach hates me, I'm still going to go out there and do my job.
And in response to joking, I encounter some coaches quite often through the seasons, and some of them are fun people whom I will let get away with a bit of humour. A joke like the one that started this post is fine, but when the attitudes start to come out, its time to draw the line and give the warnings. I don't think i've had to give out a T for a misunderstood joke yet, and I hope i never do.
