You seem to have a lot to say, but can never back it up. You agreed for some reason.

Why would I want to make $20 less than I do working during the HS season? Many times I am asked to travel just the same distance as well. I do not do this for the money, but it cost money for me to take time away from my job and gas it takes to drive to a site. Why would I want to do that and not be compensated for it? Then in many cases around here, you want me to work by myself, but not at the very least pay for all that work. More and more umpires are expected to work alone as well. That is just not right and not worth my time.

This is extremely painful to write:

I agree with Rut. That's assuming that I understood what he wrote, which is a huge assumption since English is my primary language.


Name one sentence where English was not written in this post? Or is just running your mouth the only thing you can do?

Peace
