The point I was making, there are people that have aspirations beyond high school. Doing high school does not mean you are only concerned about that level or are trying to do a good job because of what they are currently working. Actually most of the time the officials I see that do the best job, do other levels because they care about their craft by paying money to be evaluated and want to take every opportunity at all levels to get better and be hired at other levels. I know a lot of high school guys that think they have arrived or want a lot of things handed to them because they live in a certain place or they work for a certain assignor. That is why your "for the kids" position is flawed.

Peace
