crowd

Just have to vent a little about that:

I couldn't believe the stones on the passengers who stood around the gate at LAX monday, waiting to board for DFW for the 10:03am. The GA gets on and politely asks people not in F, etc., to sit down - and even points out that there aren't anywhere near enough F seats on the plane to accomodate those pretending to be up there (that was pretty funny...). So what happens? Around 5 people move away.

Wouldn't you at LEAST expect some folks to try and make a hole? Maybe they've got F envy, but the better GAs send people back to wait when they get up there anyway, so why make a fool of yourself?
