She comes back on the line 8-10 minutes later saying a seat opened up and they're able to confirm me on the 10:00 AM.
Can you get a seat assignment? My guess is that the supervisor forced you onto the flight, essentially overbooking it by one more. I'd go to the airport early. Also, try to do OLCI as a way of making sure that your ticket was correctly reissued.
