That's just it. FA are not paid for a fair part of the time that they are on duty. When they like you are waiting at the gate for a late arriving a/c, they are not being paid. It would be like you not going on the clock in the morning while you make coffee, wait for the printer to warm up, or for your computer to boot up.
