A couple years ago, I and my partner showed up to work a game. Problem as that there were 2 games....and no other officials. So, we both worked solo. About 1/2 way through my 4th quarter, he finished his and joined me. I wish I had just finished by myself. He didn't necessarily do a bad job, it was just completely inconsistent with what I had been calling for the first 3.5 quarters. If it is that late in a game, I'm more inclined to finish alone that pick up a new partner unless I've worked several games with the partner and know how he's going to call the game.
