Oh man, I commend you for putting up with those morons as much as you are.
I also commend you for being a much more honorable person than I, because while I won't admit to what I would likely do if faced with a similar situation, I will say that it would certainly be something you wouldn't find ethical
If anybody should be CEO of that company, you should.
Unfortunately, it's the idiots who are high on power that run things and not the people who would actually be good at it doing so. I don't respect most authority figures for that very reason; I can't respect somebody weaker or less intelligent than myself just because they wield authority. If anything, I pretend to respect said authority figures only when it benefits me.
Anyways, enough about my insecurities. I wish you the best!
