I worked some rec league ball toward the end of summer to keep myself in shape for the season. Working rec ball had the following effects on me:
1) Made my mechanics lazy
2) Made me wonder at least 3 or 4 times per game what my partner just called.
3) Made me call more T's on coaches and players than I probably ever have in 12 years of doing high school ball.
4) Made me wonder at least half a dozen times per game if my partner ever cracked open a rule book in his life.
5) Made me want to stop working rec ball.
With rec ball you get what you pay for. The vast majority of the officials work together all of the time and learn bad habits from one another and don't ever go through any kind of organized training. On the other hand, if you like to crack Dave-isms, it's definitely the place for you.
