Airlines overbook every day. It ****es people off.

It wasn't overbooked. Everyone had boarded and taken their seats. Then
United decided it needed to get 4 of its employees on that flight,
bumping passengers *AFTER BOARDING*. Their behavior was unconscionable.

It's not clear if it was overbooked or not. They may have overbooked
it by more than the 4 seats and had already dealt with those passengers.
