I hear ya.

I know a career JV official who is pretty good, but he just prefers being home at night. I also know a couple carrer JV officials who I'm dreading working with this season, much like the official you described but without the acceptance.

By the way, parachute pants rock, of course this comes from a guy who used to have a mullett and handle bar mustache (bring back the mullet! who's first?).
