If we were paid like this, the company would be more interested in keeping the schedule on time, and if they didn't, we would make more money, since we have to be here, in the cockpit, waiting on someone else to leave.

Very similar to when we block in, and there are no stairs for a half hour or maybe longer on some Sunday mornings. We should be paid for the time we are trapped on the airplane.
Block has never been on when you were scheduled. We have duty periods that cover our day. Try doing an air turn back out of Anc and getting a new jet and still blocking 8 plus hours. Its in the contract.
