A woman desperately looking for work goes into a toy factory and informs the personnel manager that she will take anything. The personnel manager hems and haws and finally says he has a low-skill job on the "Tickle Me Elmo" line, and nothing else. The woman happily accepts. He takes her down to the line, explains her duties, and tells her to start at 8:00 a.m. the next day. The next day at 8:45 a.m. there's a knock at the personnel manager's door. The "Tickle Me Elmo" line manager starts ranting about the new hire. He screams that the assembly line is badly backed up. The personnel manager suggests that the supervisor show him the problem. They go to the assembly line, and sure enough, Elmos are backed up from here to kingdom come. The new hire is at the end of the line. She has an entire roll of the bright fuzzy fabric used to make the Elmos and she has a big bag of marbles. They both watch curiously as she cuts a little piece of fabric, takes 2 marbles, and starts sewing them between Elmo's legs. The Personnel Manager is killing himself laughing, and finally pulls himself together. He walks over to the new hire and says, "I'm sorry. I guess you misunderstood my instructions yesterday. What you need to do is give Elmo two test tickles."
