At the end of a job interview, the human resources person
asked a young engineer just out of MIT what kind of salary
he was looking for.
"In the neighborhood of $140,000 a year,
depending on the benefits package," he said.
"Well, what would you say to a package of 5-weeks vacation,
14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching
retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car...say,
a red Corvette?"
"Wow! Are you kidding?" responded the engineer.
"Yeah, but you started it."
