The young accounting graduate, fresh out of
uni and knowing everything, applied for his first job. The
prospective
employer asked him what starting salary he was looking
for.
„Oh, around $100,000 a year, depending on the benefits
package.“
„Well, how does this sound? Five weeks annual leave, 22.5%
superannuation, paid expenses to overseas conferences every year, home
telephone
reimbursed and a company car replaced every 20,000
kilometres, say a
Mercedes convertible.“
The graduate sat up straight
and tried not to look excited. „Wow. Are
you
kidding?“
„Yeah. But you started it.“
