FAs are paid from the time the door closes till it reopens, and pilots are paid from the time the brakes release. Hence why urgency to close the door. Just as FA are required specific time between flights for layovers at the end of shift, from the time the door opened till the next days flight closes. Pilots are given amount of time from check-in time to hotel to ensure adequate rest.
