From my first year umpiring, I saw this too. People are people, mostly the same in every area of interest. Some are lazy. Some will do enough to get by. Some will invest enough to be competent. Some will be truly crafstmen with pride in their work.
I decided to not let the slackers bother me. They're still there, though. And sometimes I wonder how they get the level of games they do.
