Ummm no. You have to list for the jump seat. Just ask for the form when you get there. Once you fill it out they will put you in the computer. Keep in mind that if you are a must ride that some gate agents will tell you that you have to take the jump seat so they can get a revenue passenger on. You do not have to take it. Nor should you.

They'll also tell you to take it and that you can kick someone who is jumpseating off because you're positive space, another thing you shouldn't do.
Then, they'll call the tower and make you speak to their supervisor, in which he will beg then attempt to belittle and intimidate you into taking it.
Yes, it happened to me last month.
