    The quote you posted specifically implies any subject working FOR a motor carrier, to complete a full log of duty. And that would be correct. But OP has 2 different employers, to best of my understanding.

    This is a copy and paste of what I said,

    I don't know what the OP'S regular job is, just giving a heads up.

    If both jobs are for a carrier they both must be logged even if they are different carriers.

    If 1 job is for a non carrier then no it doesn't have to be logged. however even if not logged it's still up to the carrier to make sure i e liable, to make sure the driver is fit to do the job.

    post no 6 is incorrect IMO

    Ughmm.. not transport industry, motor carrier. The definition in the act you posted strictly states "motor carrier". So OP logs all duty pertaining to carriage of cargo with a motor carrier. But he can work for a shipper in the office, without logging that duty.

    I'm sure someone else is flexing their fingers to type on here to correct us both. lol.

    I got this info directly from a supervisor MTO officer. If you have two jobs both must be logged. If your second job is working in a whse and that employer has a cvor and is governed by hos, you must log it. Do I agree with this? Not at all. Don’t shoot the messenger. Lol

    If you eliminate the period after logged I would agree.
    Otherwise it seems slightly confusing

    Any ‘compensated work’ must be logged. There are a few ‘carve outs’ to that rule. If you are in the Military Reserve, or the Nat. Guard, and you are on maneuvers you don’t log those hours, also a few ‘family’ operations are also exempt, such as a family farm etc.
    It’s no different than if you drive as your main source of employment, or your driving is a ‘side gig’.
    That’s how it was explained to me by the safety dept., at a previous employer.
    As long as remain within the HOS, you should be fine.
    In other words, putting in 22 hrs driving on a weekend, after working 50 hours during the week somewhere else would be a no-no.

    Not true as written. Only work for a motor carrier has to be logged.
