All you would do is the minimum and cash your check. You care about building your resume and what you do to meet criteria if you are one who goes.. or you wouldnt even be there - because you wouldnt qualify.
I agree with what you have written here ONLY if the part I underlined is true.

There are many other reasons than just not caring about his craft or looking only for money why an umpire does not pursue building a resume.
