Well, I guess I'll be the guy who sticks up for CMOs.
I sit in my cube when I'm in the office and need to work on some manuals or audit. Then I'll telework from home for a few days. Then I'll go over to the operator, do a little surveillance for a while. Do an en- route do a cabin. Go to the sim and watch a checkride or two. Be on the cert team for a new aircraft. And walk by the cube later in the week to check my email.
But, I don't have to put up with stupid, barely competent GA pilots day after day.
In a few years in GA, you're going to be begging for an ACO slot. I have five friends who started out in GA and they have all moved to the CMO as soon as they could.
