For what it's worth, my schedule is now about 60% college vs. 40% HS, and I still work girls HS ball. Did one just last night, actually. I do it for a couple of reasons. One, because it helps my HS assignor. Two, because girls deserve the best officiating they can get; just as the boys do.
It's an adjustment, yes, but I can do it. Plus, I've asked my assignor to limit me to 5 or 6 girls assignments and he's fine with that. So I can help out without having to bounce back and forth all that much.

I am with you on this one. I think there are people here that are really sensitive when you say you do not like a level they personally do. Hell there are people around here (where I live) that even do not like to "waste their time" with boy's games at certain level of schools and would rather work the bigger schools where the players are more college ready than the smaller farm boy games where the playing days are over once HS ends. And let us not talk about college vs. HS games.
If you do not like something in your schedule and you have the capability to eliminate it, do that. This is not a primary job or source of income for most. If you do not enjoy working a certain type of ball stop working it. We all have our preferences and we all have things we do not like to do as much as other things. And that affects your enthusiasm and excitement for a particular level even if those do not want to admit it.
Peace
