[Bad Zebra]

Always be open to feedback. One thing I have learned is that there is no shortage of good veteran officials willing to share their knowledge and expertise with you. They know that new blood is critical to our avocation. As you get several seasons in, you may think you know what you're doing and you're ready to move up. You may even resent the feedback, because sometime it comes unsolicited, but it is invaluable. Welcome and good luck.
