I hear this a lot. But there's a problem with me taking a vacation. All the work in our office tends to gravitate towards my desk because I can get the job done.

All that stress and frustration comes back x 10 during that following week. Then I'm back to square one.

I really just need a new job. That or start coming to work stoned out of my mind... or start playing EQ at work... or not because I'll lose my job and my family will starve since they can't eat the EQ food I earned while playing at work...

This is not your issue. I deal with the same stuff at my job. This is your bosses obligation to ensure his/her company is working correctly not yours. I say this, but I also take my work to heart. Ultimately, I don't like letting things go without making sure it is completely correct and been checked accordingly. The people I coordinate with have told me, I am far more obsessive over details than others, compared to me 'mother' (think of "The Good Shepard") and just plan difficult to work with yet at the end of the day they know I am reliable and getting everything done correctly. Take a vacation. When you come back and the work has piled up tell your boss he needs to provide assistance for you. Let him know the work load. Again, I will say this is not your responsibility (unless it is) and if it is, you should have the power to hire an intern or secondary assistant.
