A post I stole from Veronica

Cause it's that damn cheesy, and I like it...


There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo
toys.

The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms. 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."
