Joke....mercifully short π½
Reaching the end of a job interview, the human resources officer asked a young engineer fresh out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, βand what starting salary are you looking for?β The engineer replies, βIn the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package.β
The interviewer inquires, βWell, what would you say to a package of five weeks vacation, fourteen paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years? Say, a red Corvette?β The engineer sits up straight and says, βWow!! Are you kidding?β The interviewer replies, βYeah, but you started it.β
