More than anything, this is the check-in desk's error. They shouldn't have allowed him on the plane on his stand-by pass as there were no empty seats left. The flight attendant may have been an employee, but her seniority puts her priority above his when it comes to flying stand-by.

He got one of the seats that are normaly reserved for flight employees. It was available when he checked in. Flight atendants normaly sit in their jump seats when not serving passengers.
