After all the "classroom and study"

Because I train and mentor a lot of younger officials, I find such lists to be helpful, in the classroom.
In a game, I have 3 quick thoughts regarding a situation that may warrant a "T":
If I give this T, will it make this game better?
If I give this T, will it make my performance in this game better?
Would I expect my partner(s) to put up with this behavior?
If it's yes, yes, no, it's a T.
I also tell younger officials that if they have to give a player or coach a T, that needs to be the calmest moment of the official's entire day, and game.
