Narrative:

The flight was the fourth round trip (7TH segment) of 10 segment day. Departure time was 30 mins after scheduled departure. This aircraft was late all morning. Captain replied on challenge/response checklist the planned fuel load instead of actual load. In after thought I couldn't remember even doing the before start checklist. Flight departed hnl normally and it wasn't until approximately 30 NM west of hnl that I noticed we hadn't been fueled at hnl. We had departed with approximately 7000 pounds instead of 14000 pounds of fuel. Flight continued to lih where we landed with 3900 pounds of fuel on board. Contributing factors: delayed flight. Pressure to get back on time. Nonstandard operations. Captain elected to start during first officer's call to clearance delivery. Crews failure to verify fuel load prior to start. Personal factors: captain has a tendency to 'run the show' ie, program computer, call block in/out times, ...do first officer chores, which led me to 'back off' what I normally do as a first officer! As a result of my inattn, we failed to wait for fuel. Lessons learned: don't let overbearing behavior by captain (or other crew members) cause me to get distraction from my normal flow. Do my job! Slow down the pace of operations if checklist or other items of importance are not complete. In this case I could have interjected a comment to the captain which instead I chose to suppress.
