That was rather rude on your account. I would not at all be happy if I was relaxing in a lounge, hear myself getting paged for what I would worry was some sort of family emergency, only to find out it was some dolt who couldn't wait till later before asking me if I'd mind swapping seats. It should not be hard to guess what my answer would be, before walking back to the lounge.
