I think Diana Mulduar did when she took the job. I think the rest of the cast resented her and she realized that it wasn't the place for her. It's the same story as Jeri Ryan coming in to Voyager at the expense of a cast mate. In the 80s the public was told McFadden had quit over story lines. But now it's known she was fired and the cast would have known that. It also explains why Stewart was so adamant she come back in season 3.
That being said, Pulaski was a #### character. If I wanted Bones, by the time she appeared I had three seasons of ToS, two seasons of animated and four movies. I didn't need a poor, unlikable facsimile to keep me sated. Bones and Spock's relationship was unique and combative but I would never describe it as overtly disrespectful. I think everyone has a close friendship like that one in their life. Pulaski was just a see you next tuesday to Data and just unbelievably disrespectful.
