Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Officer asks a young engineer fresh out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, "And what starting salary are you looking for?"
The engineer replies, "In the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package."
The interviewer inquires, "Well, what would you say to a package of five weeks vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years, say, a red Corvette?"
The engineer sits up straight and says, "Wow! Are you kidding?" The interviewer replies, "Yeah, but you started it."

Very funny !! We were part of the group that visited from the cruise ship and line danced after lunch!! The meal was heavenly. And your tour was fabulous with the Recovery House for cancer patients and the Forest Church was perfect. Thank you for allowing me to teach your girls the “ Electric Slide” !!!
