How many crews a day have to DHD out of RIC to IAD/ORD to start trips?

There are deadheaders pretty much on every flight. When the weather turns and the schedule goes to crap, even more. I was in STL deadheading up to ORD after 2 days of atrocious weather and here were 13 other deadheading crew members. Needless to say, the gate agents were furious.

hahaha the united agents hate us so much. someone should give them the number to scheduling, so they can redirect their hatred.

I never fight the gate agents for a seat when I am dead heading. If I get one I get one.
if not, I semi quickly call scheduling and let them know what happened, sometimes I get on, sometime the plane leaves with out me.
