What is your daytime job?

[Dan_ref]

Doesn't matter what my day job is...but everytime I go to a tryout camp the director tells me I shouldn't quit it.

[Rev.Ref63]

I am a pastor, which gives me tremendous flexibility. My church people are very supportive and understanding of this avenue for supplemental income.

not that I'll ever make it to that level, but if I did earn a regular college schedule it would be a very hard juggle with work. I'm a federal employee who works a regular 8-5. And just by cooincidence my boss's boss used to officiate and gave it up for his federal career. He was no longer officiating by the time I met him but he was doing state play-off games and was a top-5 camper at the ACC camp back in the mid-90's. But he gave up officiating cold turkey and has no regrets.

But just as difficult would be coordinating the schedule I have with my kids. I have a teen-ager who lives with me full-time except for every other weekend and I have 9-year old who is with my 6 out of every 14 days.

Another computer geek here.

I work a 4X10 schedule and I telecommute one day so I only go into work 3 days per week. I can flex my schedule to start as early as I want (and therefore leave as early as I want) on the days that I do go in to the office.

I am lucky because my manager is a dream to work for and knows how much I love to ref. I work a little extra during the summer months and I get lots of leeway between November and March.

Come on guys, Padgett has been retired for a long time now, but back in his younger days he served as a trail guide in the Pacific Northwest.

I'm a youth pastor...which gives me a lot of flexability. I know students and most of the high schools I officiate in...it is useful for me to get to know the administrators of schools. I just hope I do a good job so it's not a BAD impression! My church people are also very supportive.

I work for Harris Corporation and develop graphics systems for the broadcast industry.

It is Harris that you see at the beginning of every tournament game.

I think Harris is John's middle name.

Sorry........posted this inside the thread instead of making a new post.


I am a business owner. In fact, I own two businesses. This allows me to do a doubleheader at noon and a doubleheader at night during softball season. It also allows me to do 5-6 nights a week of basketball.

Of course, while they are doing this...we can't NOT put a hand out to shake because we would look like turds, but at the same time you have the visiting over there looking like, "Ohhhhhhhhhhh great.........the hometown hero's are doing our game tonight!"

Needless to say, we were each 1.5 hours from that town so that wasn't the deal, but I can about imagine what people were thinking when they saw it.

Even though we were being good sports, it just made me feel weird with only one team doing it and that being the home team.

Don't worry about that....there are enough teams that do it on a regular basis that the team that chose not to do so will not even consider it an issue...they probably see just as many visiting teams do it when they're come to their own gym.
