Speaking from my own experiences from the other side of the table, if you're not having fun, take time to evaulate what you need to do. Maybe it's just dropping the men's rec ball (since that seems to be part of all the grief), maybe you just do high school games, or maybe you go as far as taking some time away to mentally recharge yourself.
Just a few days ago, two of the more verteran officials in the area were talking at halftime about how younger officials don't officiate long-term due to all the crap they put up with.
