Tickle Me
Elmo Turmoil
There is a factory in Northern
Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs
when you tickle it under the arms. Don't ya' know.
Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory
and she reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 AM .
The next day at 8:45 AM there is a knock at the
Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman 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."
