Tickle Me Elmo Workplace Humor / Jokes
Thanks Mum for sending this one!
There is a factory in Northern
Minnesota that makes the "Tickle Me Elmo" toys. The toy laughs when you tickle
it under the arms. Well, Lena, a slow but very dependable lady is hired at the
Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8AM . The
next day there is a knock on the Personnel Manager's door. The foreman throws
open the door and begins to rant and rave 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.
The two men march down to the factory floor. When they get there, the line is
so backed up that Tickle Me Elmo's are all over the floor and they are really
beginning to pile up. At the end of the line stand s 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 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 minute 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."
