This way the computer shows all seats were filled, and the agent did their job. Textbook.

Ok, a question to you seasoned/senior(?) FTers. Is this something we should report to CO Insider for further investigation, or do we just letting sleeping dogs lie? I know neither of these instances effected the OP directly (me or flyinfroggie), but it does effect all of us if the GA/FAs don't do their job properly. I also don't know if we should be running to CO Insider every time we see irregularities. Thoughts?
