Unfortunately this is true (assuming the PSA block minimum is 3.5hrs)
At jetblue it’s 5 hrs, at spirit it’s 4 hrs. Duty can be scheduled between 12-14 hours and extended upwards of 15 for delays.
Take the example of this fun little overnight trip, you fly one leg to Norfolk, sit on the ground for five hours (six and a half, but half hour deplaning, one hour boarding) then fly back. Your flight time (paid time) is 4hrs33 and your time away from base (time on duty) is 12hrs35
But dont panic folks, you can be disciplined at any point during duty time for your behavior, where you are, and uniform compliance :,(

(Edit: blurred some stuff in the pic)
No idea if PSA even has a day value in their FA contract.
