Hi All,

                        Pick A Starting Salary
                        ----------------------

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked
the young MBA fresh out of MIT, "And what starting salary were you
looking for?"
The candidate 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 said, "Certainly, ...but you started it."
