    My instructor said by law if u was getting compensated for any thing u did. That u had to log it as on duty time. Example he gave was if on week of vacation u cut neighbors yard and he paid u. By law u had to log is as on duty not driving. Is this correct?

    Think about what you are asking....

    Compensation in this context is are you paid for it....

    If momma is addressing other issues...;)
