I agree NewUmpire. People ask me why I don't get back in it since my son is now in college and I could call all during the week. My answer is I can do lessons and charge a meager $20 per 30 minute session which is very cheap these days which is also $40 per hour and no one hollers at me. I'm inside. They are coming to me and I turn down 20 kids per week because of time constraints and having a real job. Why would I go back to umpiring in today's culture? I make what a college umpire makes when you take into account full per hour spent on getting there, pre-game, game, after game evaluation, meal, driving back home, and washing clothes and getting ready for next game. That was normally about 8 hours for me every game I called unless it was really local or I was a fill-in and got there late. That is $320 if I did 8 hours of lessons. And again, no one hollering at me except my wife.
