You really don't know what you are taking about you get 18 total days a year used whatever way you want. You get about a day and a half each month and on the Mallinckrodt Contract you need to take 5 of those days at the end of the year when Mallin is shut down and also on this contract you get a company car, gas card and Ins. so don't worry about mile reimbursement and they take out 65 a paycheck to offset the cost of the gas card-miles so you dont have to show that on your taxes. I can care less about the Ins. Benefits as my wife is a teacher and here Ins is the best. Good Luck with this Mallin Contract. How is everybdoy feeling about starting before the drug is even approve?
