Jumpseat Shuffle
First, I echo a majority of the points of others, I have never been denied JS because of some CA's bad attitude, rather they all have been most helpful, even offering up crew meals, what I do miss is being able to actually sit in the jumpseat and catch up on their point of view of whats going on in their world, of course the worse part is not getting to go home because the back was full, but hopefully that will change soon.
PS Hats off to SWA gate agents, they worked me in on a flight that was almost ready to close their doors, and I was not even listed because my flight was delayed, they are truly a class act and quick typists!
