Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Person asked the young MBA fresh out of MIT, “And what starting salary were you looking for?” The candidate said, “In the neighborhood of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package.” The HR Person 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?” And the HR Person said, “Certainly, …but you started it.”

IRS
A man, called to an audit by the IRS, asked his accountant for advice on
what to wear. “Wear your shabbiest clothing. Let him think you are a
pauper.” Then he asked his lawyer the same question, but got the opposite
advice. “Do not let them intimidate you. Wear your most elegant suit and
tie.”
Confused, the man went to his rabbi, told him of the conflicting advice,
and
requested some resolution of the dilemma. “Let me tell you a story,”
replied
the rabbi. “A woman, about to be married, asked her mother what to wear on
her wedding night. ‘Wear a heavy, long, flannel nightgown that goes right
up
to your neck.’ But when she asked her best friend, she got conflicting
advice. ‘Wear your most sexy negligee, with a V neck right down to your
navel.’
The man protested: “What does all this have to do with my problem with the
IRS?”
“No matter what you wear, you are going to get screwed.”

Advertising Jingle
One evening, a woman was working on completing a jingle to win a large cash prize from Carnation Milk. Carnation furnished the first line, “I like Carnation best of all,” and it was to be completed in 50 words or less.
A couple of months later, the woman was surprised when a Carnation Milk representative came to her door and told her her entry was the best, but it couldn’t be published, and they were giving her a consolation award of $1,000.00.
Here is her entry:
I like Carnation best of all, No tits to pull, no shit to haul. No barns to clean, no hay to pitch, Just punch a hole in the son of a bitch.
