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 Tickle Me Elmo factory and she
reports for her first day promptly 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".
