Tickle
Me Elmo
There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me
Elmo toys.
The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arm.
Well Lena 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 Lena
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 Lena.
"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".
