You came on a site dedicated to line pilots, occupied by line pilots and dealing with line pilot issues. You asked a question about being in a management position that harbors a lot of animosity for those line pilots. You expected that we all revere the chief pilot and hope to one day become one. Guess what, we don't. Sorry.

What I don't get is why you can't get over the fact that a vast majority of the members of this board have no desire to pursue a management position and have a great amount of animosity towards them. As a couple stated, in most cases dealing with the chief is just like going to the principal's office. It's rarely a good experience.

Boiler beat me to the Tony C. quote. That man could not have said it better.
