Foreigner flying out of Chicago, and no one explained that the pass I was given at check in wasn't my boarding pass. My flight is almost boarded before I realised that a seat number wasn't printed on the pass. I went to the counter to find out what I'm supposed to do, and the flight had been overbooked.

Neither of these are normal where I'm from. You get the boarding pass with your seat when you check in, and flights are never deliberately overbooked.
