Thanks everyone for your input... I am prob. going to keep my point mechanic...

One more question about the partner situation - Im working JV, and the school assigned me (and schools here in NJ for JV dont assign a position just that you will officiate the game)
I arrive 30 mins to game time.... my partner doesnt show up
its now 20 minutes to game time....

when do you suit up for the plate? what if your assigned to the bases? when do you just suit up?

It's fairly standard here to call your partners for the week on Sunday night to discuss logistics. If who does what has not been established then do it then so you will know. So in your example, if I arrive 30 minutes to game time and my partner has the plate I am dressing for bases. If he does not show by 15 minutes to game time I will start to change and get serious about it at 12 minutes to game time. If he shows after I am dressed for plate, I am working plate.
