This was a big deal a couple of years ago when the officials went on strike. One of the sticking points was that some officials wanted to be paid as full time employees. One of the quotes out there was something to the effect "well, some firefighters only work 20 hours a week and they are full time." Then 9-11 happened literally the next week and we witnessed the heroic actions of the firefighters and that quote was never mentioned again.

Anyway, I don't see the value of having full time officials for the NFL. What more are officals going to gain by being considering and being paid as full time?
