The great thing about officiating is that we are a tight nit community. When schools or leagues treat guys with disrespect, it is always interesting how the "good officials" will decide not to work for these leagues or schools anymore. I have heard of many situations like this where schools or leagues do not pay when they should base on the contract. Then the masses of officials decide to not work those games anymore. Of course these leagues or school will find someone to cover the games, but they might not get their first choice. That in itself has changed practices like this.
