you nailed it on the head. i did leave out some context and i see now this post is just the ranting of a madman.

i am an Intern, and my boss is the ERP Systems manager. My company is not large. Before I came along, it was just my boss. He is the heart, soul, and backbone of the IT department here. Now i am one of the limbs.

it is just us 2. i think you absolutely banged it on the head that i suffer from the inability to effectively communicate my anxieties/concerns with my superior, and i feel i have done him an injustice with this post and i wanted to say that you are right. My anxiety is coming from my inability to communicate properly. he may totally be under the impression that i can handle this, but i also want to say i don't really know WHY not because i don't think i can handle this if i were adequately prepared, but that i attempt to ask these questions and am sort of... left on read. i know that if this does go awry, i will not be the sole blame. but i am struggling with this like desire to make sure that my company is able to carry on production without a blip. vmaybe i am in la la land and care too much about the company that would replace me in a heartbeat, but i want to prove to myself i can be a part of this field, be a part of this industry.

thank you for your advice. i want you to know that i am genuinely taking all points made in this thread to heart.
