But if you want to work or maintain customers in your "real" job, you better return calls and send the proper paperwork to the proper people. If you do not, you might not have a job or a business. That is the part that has to be treated like a job or vocation. Just because it is a hobby, does not mean it will not take you a great deal of time an energy. And considering that we do get paid money and have to file taxes based on our officiating, it is a vocation. It might not pay all your bills or make you rich, but it is income.

WTF? You can manage your hobby as a business but that doesn't make it anything more than an avocation. This differs from your real job (your vocation) in that your real job takes priority over your hobby.
I give up...
