A young engineer, fresh out of University, was in an interview with a well known, high end, company. The interview was going rather well, & was now reaching the end. "I have 1 last question to ask you." says the human resources manager."What starting salary were you thinking about?" The young engineer sat back & thought for a minute & finally said: "Well, I'm thinking in the neighborhood of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package." The manager stared at him for a minute & said: "Well, I'm not sure we can offer that...what would you say to a package of 5 weeks PAID vacation, 14 PAID holidays, full medical & dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, & will even throw in a company car, leased every 2 years - say, a red Corvette?" The engineer's eyes grew wide, & he sat up straight, trying to hold his composure, & said: "WOW!!! I can't believe this! Are you kidding?"
The manager replied, "Yeah, but you started it."
