The Reserve callout requirement allows for 45 minutes from the call for sh!t, shower, shave and pack, and 1 1/2 hours travel time. It would certainly be worth noting 'management' pilot activity before their report at dispatch if one were able to.
Sounds like this lot are running scared of the lawyers, or setting themselves up for a 'mini 49ers': making sure all the squares are ticked, then firing a few pilots 'pour encourager les autres'.
