There is a factory in America which makes 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 8:00am.
The next day at 8:45am 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 needs to see this for himself so the two
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 are 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 two men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps
it around the two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package
between Elmo's legs.
The Personnel Manages 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".
