Sad but true. Any analogies of jobs in the "real world" to officiating really don't hold water.

In the corporate world, performance is the only thing that matters. If I don't perform, I am axed. However, before that happens, there is not a notice sent to 1 million shareholders.

I can't imagine that employee morale stays up if 500,000 shareholders are told that Mr. John Doe from the Springfield, MO facility will be fired unless he meets the next quarterly goal.

JMHO.
