If I had a quarter for everytime I seen someone in a similar position that did a fraction of the work I or others were able to do, I could be on a remote island right now. Those situations are really difficult. Even if you do bring it up, the person favoring them will go above and beyond to discredit it, at least that was my experience with something similar. Really a rock and a hard place to be.
I believe the main reason why I am able to get so much done is because I come to work at 330am. This way I can do my work without anyone bothering me. But this guy is relatively new. He also does not follow instructions as per maintenance manuals for avionics equipment
So basically your doing more work by working a lot more hours than anyone else. Are you getting paid more for your extra work? Are donating your time? If the former you are choosing to do more for compensation and he is not. If the latter you are giving more than you are being compensated for and he is not. So now the question is, "are his goals attainable in the hours he is working?" If not you have identified the problem. If so you can begin to discuss his work ethic/attitude. The not following instructions about equipment is a completely different problem
In the business of leadership we all have to learn that those people exist at every level. The worst thing you can do is start looking at what poor leaders do, and just focus on making yourself better. You say you come in at 330am how early is that compared to your start time? A good leader always comes in early to make sure you are prepared for the day, but don't include that in your praise of yourself for exceeding goals. Also remember that some where people are going to expect you to be there at 330am. Focus on you and work to change what you can control.
My start time is 830am. My manager appreciates it but does not expect me to come in at 830. This way I get my 5s audits done for the week and post the following weeks results. He does his on Friday.
You go in 5 hours early? You are setting yourself up to burn out, if you have to go in that early to get your own work done you have to much on your plate.
