Trust me if there had been any kind of browbeating from him I would NOT have done this. He was very polite and I doubt there would have been any dirty looks or verbal abuse from him if I'd declined. We're literally talking about two aisle seats in the same row, what difference does it make which one I sit in? I have had poachers ejected from my seat before, but in this case no harm no foul and why make a big deal out of it...
