This doesn’t make any sense. Training time is billed according as a passed through cost plus, not an hourly rate for the person who started the task.
I don’t know anyone who would have gotten away with billing AWS training time at their own hourly rate as if they were working. That’s ridiculous. Would be hilarious to see someone submit 24-hour days for long training runs though.
