To My Oldest Son

From Pine River World News

[The following joke is from the Sofia News Agency,
Bulgaria, newswire.]- - -
Just a Joke - - -- Reaching the end of a job interview, the human resources person asked a 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 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."
Son, did you understand the joke?
