"I'm not used to someone putting me first."

"I'm not used to (accustomed to) someone putting me first."
How to say this in Spanish? I'm at a loss as to an expression for "put someone else first".

"No estoy acostumbrado a alguien que me ponga primero". The italicized part is the literal translation, but I don't know if this is the right way to translate it.
