factory, and she reported to work promptly at 8:00 AM.
The next day at 8:45 AM, there was a knock at the personnel manager's door.
The assembly line foreman came in and began ranting about this new employee.
He said she was incredibly slow, and the whole assembly line was backing up.
The foreman took the personnel manager down to the factory floor to show
him the problem.
Sure enough, Elmo's were backed up all over the place. At the end of the
line was the new employee. She had a roll of the material used for the
Elmo's and a big bag of marbles. The personnel manager watched as she cut a little
piece of fabric, wrapped it around two marbles, and started sewing the
little package between Elmo's legs.
The personnel manager began laughing hysterically. After several minutes,
He pulled himself together, walked over to the woman and said, "I'm
sorry. I guess I didn't make myself clear yesterday! Your job is to give
Elmo two test tickles!"
