I may be wrong, but I think she was actually right in this case. Being listed as a jumpseater and a nonrev are two seperate things (I think) and unless you signed up in CASS to ride up front, he had priority over you. But I might be mistaken...

I've had the same experience when non-revving out of JFK (my home airport.) Going to Vegas on two separate occasions did my gf and I miss flights because an off-duty gate agent went up to the computer and assigned seats to themselves and their family over us. Both times I complained to Delta, but could never give them any more info than the gate agent that worked the flight because they (the agent working) refused to admit they an off-duty agent had done so and refused to give me any names. Delta, of course, did nothing.
