Seat Squatters!
For the second time in the past week, I have boarded my flight and someone is sitting in my seat!
I'm not angry or pissed, but I did pick my seat for a reason. This is all in the front cabin.
First flight a few days back. Some guy is sitting in my seat, I said "excuse me sir, do you mind checking your boarding pass again"
His response was "I wouldn't be in your seat if people didn't keep tossing me around."
LOL, really mfker? - Said that to myself of course. But what I did say was "So you just sit wherever you want?"
This guy already had his shoes off, so he had intentions on staying in my seat.
Apparently before I boarded he switched with some woman from his original first class seat. Except her seat was on the other side but he decided to sit on my side because the seat was open...? So he decided it was best to cop an attitude and just sit comfortably where ever he felt at that point. WHATEVER MAN!
Anyways, ended up getting my seat....
Today, I board my flight, first class cabin. Some lady is already in my seat, I said "excuse me ma'am" before I could finish she cut me off and said "do you mind sitting in my seat over there."
Really LADY, REALLY??? So she took it upon herself to sit her arse in my seat before I even got to sit in it and decide if I wanted to switch with her or not. UNBELIEVABLE.
3rd time will be a charm and I'll probably just lose all of my patience for some of these seat thieves.
I don't mind seat swapping in most cases, especially if asked nicely but these people are just taking advantage.
