Old School,
I'm with you on that. I had something similar, but I didn't know the assignor was in the stands. He does that from time to time. This game decided who goes into the playoffs. The coach didn't like the call one of my partners made. I too asked him to get back in the box. He said I want to talk about this call. I told him I'll meet him at his coaching box. There we were able to talk about the call. My assignor after the game told me I handle that situation properly. Very close game and very intense. Also the league commissioner was in attendance. Also said our crew did a great job. If a coach is willing to work with you, don't trouble trouble. The other coach didn't say anything about about giving a tech. Great game!

Knowing the rules is half of what it takes to be a good official. Being in position to make the call is the other half.
