GL on the UG!
Now, as of 17:43, I'm #2 of 9 for 1 FC seat (Clearly, there must be another DYKWIA on a fare higher than a H). Generally, since when I go on business, I don't normally have to worry about the upgrade, I just end up forgetting to check the box when booking other tickets.

While the task is simple, the error is egregious

It is getting there as the engineering firm just finished up their schematics and turned them over to the contractor so that the appropriate permits can be pulled.

This was his comment after I told him that the water pressure in the entire BR was messed up, and that I needed to call the building mgmt co. to inform them of this problem.
At least you have a management company that you can have fix things.

UPDATE: Now #3 of 12 for 1 FC seat (18:56)

The last time the management company "fixed" something, was to just repair some seal in the toilet within the floor... they charged me 2.5X the going price, with their so called preferred plumber. This was done without my permission or knowledge, as I was diving in the Philippines at the time, and they said they would wait until I returned...

And to make matters worse, the plumber did not put the throne into the proper spot in the guest bathroom, as the toilet blocked the door from closing. I discovered the problem only when I had a houseguest.

Hope your UG goes through!

Well, never mind my suggestion to ask the mgmt. company for recommendations! I guess you've already learned where that leads.

There may be hope, as we have a different management company now.

...and shouldn't I punish myself for my egregious error? (not checking the "request upgrade" box)

Self-flagellation* is really not necessary. Being in a CRJ is enough punishment on it's own!

He had a long list.

He's mostly worked his way through it.

You were on the list.

You're one of the last to arrive.

Thus you're close to last on his "Must Meet" list.

Just guessing here......
