Needless to say I still stopped in up front just to say "hey" and get their approval but I got the impression from them that it wasn't needed. Better safe than sorry.
Where I was really thrown off was in flight, the FA came by to serve drinks and says to me "ya know, if you take your ID off I can serve you drinks (alcohol)" so I told her no thanks and that I was jumpseating. She goes "oh, that doesn't matter. But suit yourself"

Yup had a United FA say the same to me. She meant well, but FAs don't get that jumpseaters can't have alcohol since they do it all the time when they jumpseat
