Two choices. Do as the employee directs or work somewhere else (or not at all). Most local leagues have some local rules. A time limit is perfect example. If I show up and they say we have a 2 hour time limit I'm not going to walk away stuttering "that's not in the book". Another example is intentional walks. If they want a league rule that says no pitches need to be thrown (ala FED) then go for it. Just explain what you want and I either take the assignment, or not. Can't recall a time where a local league rule scared me away.
