That’s why I liked the episode when Captain Jellico came in and tried to whip their sorry asses into shape and run the Enterprise like an actual military vessel.

That episode made me hate Riker. There's a war about to break out and Riker is worried about the feelings of the crew at having to work a different shift but mostly about Jellico not kissing Riker's butt. So he bails and when that captain comes up with a creative brilliant plan that needs Riker's help to avert the war that will kill millions Riker smugly makes the captain apologize and beg before he'll deign to do it. And Captain Jellico does it because he's a far better man than the petty jerk Riker we saw in that episode.
