I agree that future909 needs to step back and ask him/herself if their assessment of the situation is accurate.
I do stand by my observation of the conflict of interest, if Future909 officiating style is impacted by his/her employment relationship with the boss.

Have you considered that perhaps Future90's "officiating style" needs to be imapcted by this person? 
Lots of officials are a little slower and maybe not quite as sharp as they once were. Many don't want to hang it up. I know I'm not looking forward to that day.
But just because someone is a few steps slower or may disagree with a young official's call, it doesn't mean their heart is not in it. There's a lot to be learned from a lot of these guys.
Let's not disparage every official over the age of 50 with generalizations, just because they're over 50.
Quite honestly, Future909 reminds me of a lot of young bucks when he says, "He is one of those people who thinks he knows everything." I was a young buck once. Then I found out that it was me who thought he knew everything.
Now I'm just old (44), arrogant, and set in my ways.

This is your third response. You are the first and only person to mention the "boss" being 50 or over 50 until I mentioned you saying it. At this point I was wondering where you got the boss being 50 from.
