Boarding agent Martha @ Gate 25A was doing, rude, inflexible. I missed priority boarding and found myself on wrong side of the fence line. I dared to duck underneath to approach the agent. As it wss in between zone boarding, nobody was in line or bothered by my egregious behaviour (joke). Martha did not find this amusing and although cleearly knew that i missed boardung group one, decided to chided me for improper approach. I acknowledged and unfortunately added 'let's not bother with this' which caused her to prevent me boarding and call her supervisor. After a few long minutes, he arrived, listened, gave a brief reminder about security (??) and I went on my way. The point is, I made a self-autonomous blunder which the agent responded to in a rather harsh manner. That was not necessary and just caused an unreasonable interchange. She needs to lighten up a bit more. I slept the entire flight back home.....
