Job #51 – Dodgeball Ref
Job Title: Referee
Company: New York City Social Sports League
Duration 6 Seasons – Approx. two years
- As one of the original players in the league, I began reffing after I left my job at DC Comics – it was a great way to get a little money off-the books to help supplement my unemployment checks.
- Responsible for taping the courts before match play began and cleaning the space at the end of the evening.
- I had to follow six balls at any given time, flying through the air in different directions, making sure the folks who got out, got out – you be surprised how many people try to cheat during a dodgeball beer league…
- Job helped me develop an even thicker skin. People hate the ref!
