Narrative:
On mar/wed/01, it came to my attention that office work was considered duty time. On feb/wed/01, I worked in the office, doing pilot interviews, from AM00-PM00. I then went on a stand-up (continuous duty overnight) the same night from PM55 to AM42 feb/thu/01. After my return from my continuous duty overnight, I again did interviews for the company from PM00-QM00 on feb/thu/01. I received just over 7 hours of rest in that period. If I had known that office duty was to be considered in crew rest, I would not have accepted the office assignment.
