I volunteer to referee soccer games sometimes. I did something like 50 games in the past year. I volunteer to referee a tournament this weekend, but my availability is limited to only saturday before 2:30. So of course I only get 1 game at 12:00. I usually get 5 games or more a day at tournaments. I've even done as many as 8. So then when I try to get extra games because I don't want to waste my time, I don't look at the date and don't see that the games are on Sunday. So I hurriedly decline them and get a nasty letter from my assignor telling me that she should take the game I have away. And you know, I declined putting out my availability to other tournaments because of this one...something tells me it was a waste of my time. Oh well. I'll just referee my one game this week and not get tired at all.
