And Anellese Backed Up
FOUND by Linda Kapp
Poor Anellese, I wonder why she's "backed up" and why Ron needs to know about it.

Sounds like something stuck on a computer monitor after hours for a tech's boss to look at when he gets in the next day. Tech didn't do anything with the computer (which had been backed up by Aneliese) because Linda dropped the ball.

This is so cryptic. I love it.

I don't know why, but this makes me think of a couple having a fight and the guy is assuring his girlfriend he didn't cheat on her.
I'm strange like that...lol

This is so familiar - no one wants the extra work so Ron, I'm afraid, the buck is passed back to you. But when they want some help make sure that you're 'not sure what they wanted' and that you're 'backed up'.

i like how it could be a note between a girlfriend who may or may not have cheated, or it could be a note about work. Perhaps a cryptic office romance note!

I used to work in a doctor's office and this reminds me of many notes I left for my manager when she'd asked me to keep an eye on things and close up the office while she was gone. Here's what I imagined when I read it:

Ron's the manager and while Ron was out, some odd document, fax, issue, etc. popped up and nobody (including Linda and the note writer) knew what to do with it because they weren't sure what "he", perhaps the originator of the document, fax, issue, etc. wanted. This note would have been left on top of the doc on the boss's desk.

The part about Anellese backing up may have been an afterthought and had nothing to do with the rest of the note. I think it refers to backing up a computer or server, which we used to do every night at the clinic where I worked.

Anyway, that's just my take on it. :)
