Near the end of an interview, the HR manager says to a young graduate, “What sort of income would you expect?”

The young man replies, “I reckon upwards of $180K, dependent on the package you offer”.

The HR bloke looks him in the eye and says, “All right. How about six weeks’ annual recreation leave, including three company-paid weeks to any overseas destination of your choice, a permanent two-by-two lease on a suitable car, a BMW M3, say, and a 25% deposit on a Double Bay home?”

“You’re kidding!” the applicant says.

“Yeah, but you started it…!”
