True story, we look for a reason to rotate not to upgrade. Those pretty much call themselves.
With the OP being a rookie, I thought jritchies point was a good one.
If I got the WHOLE truth & nothing but the truth when I first started out, I wouldnt have had to forget so many of the half truths.
Newer officials take the words we say to heart... I know I did.

I remember being told that just pointing on OOB was a college mechanic. Years later I found out it was a womens mechanic. The same for standing on the low block for the first of two FTs.
