Helping the rookie
Worked recently in a 3 man crew where the more experienced referee was all over the rookie in our crew. Very critical in an aggressive and profane manner. I was having flashbacks to my football coaches 40 years ago. No matter how many times I redirected the conversation, found something positive to say etc. the aggressive criticism continued. After the game I walked out of the gym with the rookie. Any wisdom on what I should have said or what to say the next time I see him?
BTW-- this veteran and I are NOT close...talking to him is a waste of time---been there, done that.
