Working with a weaker partner

After using this forum for the last several years, I think it's safe to assume that most, if not all, of the posters here have a desire to be the best umpire they can be and work hard to achieve that goal.

My question is: how do you handle working with a partner that is "less committed" to that goal? I'm not talking about a new or younger official that is learning and making his mistakes along the way, but the guy who is just not a very good umpire, or who is just out there for the $$ and acts like it.

For me, I'm going to cover my responsibilities and "trust" him to cover his. I refuse to try to do both umpires jobs.

Anybody else?
