This is my 15 year old DD's favorite joke. I found it on an old e-mail that I was archiving. My DD still starts laughing everytime she hears tickle me Elmo.
______________
A woman desperately looking for work goes into Erwin toys, the manufacturer of the "Tickle Me Elmo" doll. The Personnel Manager goes over her resume and explains that he regrets he has nothing worthy of her. The woman answers that she really needs work and will take almost anything. The Personnel Manager hems and haws and finally says he does have 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 be in tostart at 8:00 AM the next day.
>
>Next day at 8:45 there's a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The "Tickle Me Elmo" line manager comes in and starts ranting about the woman just hired. After screaming for 15 minutes about how badly backed up the assembly line is, the Personnel Manager suggests he show him the problem.
Together they head down to the line and, sure enough, Elmos are backed up from here to kingdom come. Right at the end of the line is the woman just hired. She has pulled over a roll of the material used for the Elmos and has a big bag of marbles. They both watch as she cuts a little piece of fabric, takes 2 marbles, and sews them between Elmo's legs.
The Personnel Manager begins to laugh hysterically. Finally, after 20 minutes of rolling around, he pulls himself together and walks over to the new employee and says: "I'm sorry, I guess you misunderstood me yesterday.
What I wanted you to do was give each Elmo two test tickles."
