Dissappointed official

[Nu1]

RefVA, I've had some similar feelings myself. Here's how I answered my own questions;
1. Some assignors are better than others (just like some refs are better than others)
2. If I have concerns about my current assignor, I can stay where I am and be unhappy...I can stay where I am and try to change things (executive committees, boards, talk to assignor, etc.)...I can move on to another association / chapter

Ultimately, your assignor assigns games based on whatever criteria they use - good, bad, fair, not fair, whatever. And I too saw some things that I thought were questionable. But I'm not an assignor. So, I have to choose #1 or #2 (assuming my choice is to continue to referee). Really good assignors (and by that I don't mean assignors who give me what I want - I haven't had any "top-notch" varsity games or playoffs yet) are a blessing...just like really good bosses...or really good partners. They make things more enjoyable.

I'm glad you have some place to vent and hear the opinions of others and possibly different view points. Ultimately, I think you'll need to decide to stay and let it be what it is...or move on. That's the choice you can control...unlike the choices of the assignor.

** By the way, I just re-read my post and want to make something clear. I don't feel entitled to any top-notch varsity games or playoffs. I just wanted to point out that I'm not at that level yet...but I still have a job-performance opinion of the assignors I do and have worked for. Personally, I'm fortunate to be where I am.
