aah, I must disagree, if the person had just responded with a simple no thank you, I would probably not even remembered it happening. Funny, I can even remember what he looked like. It was the condensending remark that was rude. I didnt think that I had a superior claim to his seat. I had no entitlement to his seat . Sorry you got that out of my post-defitely not intendent.Yes, I was asking a favor. It would have been nice to sit across from my son. He didnt want to switch. A simple no thanks was all that was needed.
