Site is a ten minute drive from home. No observation for evaluation before, or after, the game. Same partner I worked with last week, so no pregame. I'm required to show up only ten minutes before tipoff. No introductions. No National Anthem. Seven minute periods. Five minute halftime. "Relaxed" mechanics (switch when convenient). Complimentary food, and drink, from concession stand. I'll leave home around 5:40 p.m., and be home by 7:15 p.m., with $54.00 cash in my pocket.
Girls/Boys Doubleheader: $82.00 Cash
Sub"varsity" Weekend Games (Six Minute Periods): $30.00 Per Game Check (Usually Tripleheaders, or Quadrupleheaders)

I can hear you all saying, "There's gotta be a catch". Not really. Must show up in full high school (sans jacket) uniform (no shorts, no sweatpants, no sneakers, no jewelry). No showers available. Must enforce every "fashion police" rule in the book, or we don't get paid.
