And adding insult to injury is when the GA decides to board early, like this morning. My originating flight was a few minutes late, I had a 45m connection, I hustle from C to D and get to my connecting gate 4 minutes after boarding was supposed to start, and they're on group 4!
I was in FC and it took 5 minutes of luggage moving to find room for my carry-on, all the while the FA is giving me the stink-eye for not boarding with everyone else
