There is a factory in America which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The
toy laughs when you tickle it under the arm.
A new employee is hired at the factory and starts at 0800. The
next day at 0845 there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The
Foreman from the assembly line throws open the door and begins to rant
about the new employee. He complains that she is incredibly slow and
the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind
schedule.
The Personnel Manager decides he should see this for himself so
the 2 men march down to the factory floor.
When they get there the line is so backed up that there are
Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really
beginning to pile up.
At the end of the line stands the new employee surrounded by
mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a
huge bag of small marbles. The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a
little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to
carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs.
The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter. After several
minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and approaches the
woman. "I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight
face, "but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you
yesterday"......
"Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles".
