Interesting...I can't think of any ref that doesn't have a "real job"

A lot of us do own businesses though that's why we can travel and get away from work.

You now know a referee without a "real job".

On a message board, at least.

Nothing wrong with that as long as you like Reffing and can get by. Most of us have kids so it's tough on a ncaa/USHL and HS pay rate to get by.

Well when I was out of college at 21-22 years old I didnt have a real job yet, so yes there is plenty of refs that don't have a real jobs. You dont know refs who are under 22 years old?

Yes, of course. I'm just saying I couldn't support my family of 4 if I only reffed NCAA.
