Partner who does things "His way".
What do you do if you have a partner who says this pregame: "I don't care what the new rule / emphasis is, I will never change the way I call."
[a] If you are "senior" to this official. [b] If you are "junior" (especially if he is a "big dog"). |

Being the partner who cares enough to call the rules and POEs as written, I'm going to do my best to suck it up for the time we're together. As a fairly new official myself, I get some of these people as partners. I go call the game, it's obvious to the coaches which one of us cares to be there and if I don't get all the rulings it's because I'm gaining experience, not because I don't care. Unfortunately these partners require a get in, get out, go home type of game. |

I had a partner who told me in pre-game he was not going to call a certain rule the right way, even though we got a directive from about we were to call it by the book. I reminded him of that, but he was politely adament.
All you can do is remember him at rating time.

You rate your partners in your state? How does that factor into regular season or other assignments? |

A Numbers Game ...
Here in my little corner of Connecticut, ratings (80% of our rating is based on peer evaluations) are used to rank officials (1 "best" to 325 "worst"). Our assignment commissioner uses these rankings to assign games, and the number, and level (subvarsity, varsity, "big" games), of assignments is based solely on that ranking.
