I concer with everyone else on facial hair. You will go a lot farther in whatever you do, except lumberjacking, without facial hair. How many fortune 500 CEO's have facial hair? Not many. Same with D1 or pro Referees and Umpires.
As far as mileage goes, it is usually written into the contract between the schools and the association or you what that will be. That way Rut can't drive around the block and get more mileage.:-) Even in cases where the official lives close to one of the big mileage sites, he won't make the mileage going into town for a game but does make the mileage on the short trip to his local HS. It all comes out in the wash if the schedule is balanced properly.
