Personal History
Lieutenant Commander Christopher Hobson served as Data's first officer aboard the USS Sutherland during Captain Jean-Luc Picard's blockade of the Klingon-Romulan border in 2368.
His first official act in that position was to request a transfer off the ship since he regarded Data as an inappropriate commanding officer because he was an android. His attitude reflected one of racial bigotry, as he suggested that certain species were not "meant" for certain assignments, such as a Klingon being a counselor. However, after Data made an astute command decision, detecting Romulan whereabouts, there was a hint of a newfound respect.
Simply because Data didn't notate the level of disrespect shown to him by Hobson he was promoted to Commander after the blockade. After four years of service as a First Officer he was promoted to Captain and assumed command of the the medical ship USS Olympic.
