Another repeat

[Guest guest]

At the end of a job interview, the human-resources director asked the new

MBA graduate what salary he would expect if he were hired. The candidate

responded confidently, "In the neighborhood of $100,000 depending on the

benefits package."

 

The HR director replied, "What would you say to a benefits package of five

paid weeks of vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, a

retirement fund with a 50-percent company match, and a company car-say, a

'99 red convertible BMW."

 

The grad sat up, mouth agape, and said, "Are you kidding?"

 

"Of course," the HR director replied. "But you started it!"
