(Apologies if this has been posted before)A new employee is hired at the Tickle Me Elmo factory. The personnel manager explains her duties and tells her to report to work promptly at 8:00 a.m. The next day at 8:45 a.m. there's a knock at the personnel manager's door. The assembly line foreman comes in and starts ranting about this new employee. He says she's incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up. The foreman takes the personnel manger down to the factory floor to show him the problem. Sure enough, Elmos are backed up all over the place. At the end of the line is the new employee. She has a roll of the material used for the Elmos and a big bag of marbles. They both watch as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles, and starts sewing the little package between Elmo's legs. The personnel manager starts laughing hysterically. After several minutes he pulls himself together, walks over to the woman and says, "I'm sorry, I guess you misunderstood me yesterday. Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles."
Very good Teecee, sounds like something I'd do in a blonde moment lol...!
I once went to the toys R us in southampton slightly inebriated with a mate and set off all the tickle me elmos (about 30 of them) whereupon the shelf collapsed - we got thrown out, I wonder why?!
Lol - I would love to have seen that!!!!
I too had an incident in probably that same store in Southampton in the 80's - I was playing about with some stuff, as you do, and another customer asked if the cheap skateboards were any good. Obligingly I gave one a go, did a few tic tacs (old skool!!), went in to a nose wheelie followed very quickly by a half somersault onto my arse! Skateboard shot one way down the aisle and the enquiring customer the other (running!)....
p.s. I still have one of the original Tickle-Me-Elmos but these new ones are fantastic!!!
