Work is Getting More Stressful

After having a very easy first couple of months, my job is now getting a bit more stressful. The more I know and learn, the more I find holes, things not being done properly, and basically a lot of things that my boss (soon to be my former boss) neglected. Since I seem to have a mild form of OCD, the absence of structure rather gets to me and I want to impose order, ’sort it out’, ‘do things right’.

My boss has been absent mentally and physically for much of the time, and I feel it’s all my responsibility. Which it probably isn’t. However, I want to push myself and get things under control before I go on holiday (next Thursday; away for 2 weeks! Yay!!). There, I’ll have plenty of distance to the job, and I can reflect whether or not I do want to apply for my former boss’ when I return.

It would be more stressful/more responsibility, for hardly any more money at all. I know I could do it, but it would not be the easiest option, given what I’m learning just now.
