Are You Kidding?

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked a young engineer who was fresh out of MIT, "What starting salary were you  thinking about?"

The Engineer said, "In the neighborhood of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package."

The interviewer 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 leased every 2 years -  say, a red Corvette?" The Engineer sat up straight and
 said, "Wow! Are you kidding?" The interviewer replied,

"Yeah, but you started it."
