Not unless they were sheep. I would have demanded that they move. You would have let them squat in your seat?

Yes there is going to be a percentage (which varies based on opinion) of people who need to be the first on the plane, or need to be most important. Heck just yesterday there was a lice on my flight asking everyone around him if they were GS....and directing people to behind him. What is one to do? - moving on.
Correction: If he was GS and they were not, THEY were the lice and should not have been blocking the entrance. I'm 1k, and if no one is waiting at the carpet, I start the line about a meter behind to allow room for the pre-boarders.
