At the end
of a job interview, a young Engineer fresh
out of MIT was asked, "And what starting
salary were you looking for?"
The Engineer replied, "In the neighborhood
of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits
package."
The interviewer said, "Well, what would

- say, a red Corvette?"
The Engineer sat up straight and said, "Wow!
Are you kidding?"
And the interviewer replied, "Yeah, but
you started it.
