That's why they always sound like they have no idea what you're talking about when you call in: they really don't.
Yet PMUA phone agents were able to do just this very thing if an upgrade did drop from the waitlist [which was the exception and not the rule as with PMUA, a waitlisted upgrade carried over to t-4 hours where it then seamlessly rolled over to the airport waitlist]
