Skinner and the X-Files

Well, I only watched the season eight and season nine eps that had Mulder in them, so it's possible I missed something, but as far as I'm aware, Skinner was *always* the AD in charge of the X-Files. There was a scene in one ep in season six where Skinner was jumping on Jeff Spender for not investingating more X-Files during the period when JS and Fowl Thing were the XF agents. And then, when Doggy and Reyes took over the X-Files in season nine, wasn't Skinner *their* boss??
Kersh was Mulder and Scully's boss when M&S were on the anti-terrorism unit, because it was in a different chain of command. But the organizational chart of the XF-FBI was always kind of wonky. Kersh and Blevins were, I think, both "section chiefs" while Skinner was an "assistant director", but we never knew if section chiefs were superior to or subordinate to assistant directors. It sounds like an "assistant director" should be just under the actual "Director of the FBI" in the chain of command, but who knows?
