I guess working 161 games in 178 days in a dozen different cities is not working every day!!

Uh, no...maybe I understand the problem with the contract now. Math lessons may be in order. 161 is less than 178, right? By the way, a Rookie and Short A season is not six months long. AA and AAA sessons are only five months - 5 times 31 equals 155. Double check it, if you want. Or are you saying you are really a WUA umpire?
Thanks for copying my signature, by the way. Read it and think about what it means.
