Just for the record, I wasn't 'mildly sympathetic' with the OP. I simply left others to tell him what he sounded like when arriving in this 'cabin' to tell about his arrival in another cabin. I was being polite, although I'm not sure that I should have been.
Bussing is horrible, you don't know which side the doors will open and whether you will be first or last. It's life as an airline pax. What the OP described happens 10,000 times a day around the globe in all countries. Not to mention that C and F pax can have VERY sharp elbows too.
