If someone else complains to you about him, you are allowed to listen, and then roll your eyes and say, "Yea, I've heard he's tough on new folks." When you know another ref well enough to consider yourself friends, you can also tell your story to them, if they aren't going to tell anyone else.

During a game like this, you're smart to remember the now timeless mick-maxim:

Get in
Get done
Get out.
