Let's say you have a double dip which I believe most of get each and every weekend even during Fall ball.
Yes you have those marathons sometimes but by and large the games average between 2 2:15 with a 20 minute change-over
So for 5 hours you receive $120.00 or whatever the rate is in your area. $120/5 = $24/hour.
Not bad for a "part-time' job.

Exactly Pete, add to this we can work when we want as well as the sheer enjoyment of it. If you took a part time position elsewhere you wouldn't get the opportunity to block out dates you cant work in arbiter or which ever other system, and I guarantee you would be hard pressed to find anything nearly as enjoyable.
