    Hey y'all. Names DarthAntTrucker. Quick question and may sound dumb(no dumb questions, though, right?) I'm currently waiting on a mentor and Im sitting at home. I assume I'd log the time im off as OFF DUTY-NOT DRIVING, ONLY because I did some required classes for Swift Univ. Thank you for answers. !

    Yes, log as off-duty if you're sitting at home.

    Edit: If you're doing online classes, log those on-duty.

    No. The woman that gave me my code is still trying to get one to route around where Im at and if she cant, we have to wait until someone else is done with their student so they can swing by and grab me.
