Cocky engineer

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked
the young Engineer fresh out of MIT, "And what starting salary were
you looking for?"

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

The HR Person 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?"

And the HR Person replied, "Yeah, but you started it."
