Holding up the Work
By A new blonde employee is hired at the Tickle Me Elmo factory, and she reports for her first day promptly at 8am. By the end of the day, there is a knock at the Personnel Manager’s door. The Foreman from the assembly line enters 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 two men march down to the factory floor. When they get there, the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmos all over the factory floor. At the end of the line stands the new employee surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmos. 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 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 I keep a straight face, “but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you this morning. Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.”
