Quite frankly I see no reason to be hog-tied to any one local at the airport for FSB so if I decided to go for a run, all the while staying on the airport property, it could take a little while to get to the aircraft.
Our esteemed negotiators assured us during negotiations that this lamest of lame piece of the CBA would never be used and if it were, it would only be during dire emergencies.

If the company gives you a quick departure, and you need the full 60/90 from notification, fine. Let them know when they notify you of the assignment.
60/90 is the standard. If you can do it quicker, fine. But if you can’t meet that standard, just be ready to answer the question why not if asked.
Pretty simple.
