Now in his defense, I don't think he had noticed the mother get on, but at the same time I was kind of pissed off about it. He was a construction worker and I assumed he had been on his feet most of the day whereas I had been sitting, so I let it pass. Still kind of irked me though.

Same thing happened to me. I stood up to give my seat to a very pregnant woman, and a 300 pound bohemoth sat her ass right down in it. I was about to explode, but thankfully other passengers said something. I wouldn't have been so diplomatic with my response.
