So my boss is leaving the company and the question has started to come up if my colleague or me are going to take his position. I’ve been hesitant to take it because I’m ready to start somewhere new. I feel like I’ve done the best of my ability for the work that I’ve done. Also, do not like the politics of this place. Should I try to get the position or let my colleague have it? Need some opinions

If you want to leave, let your colleague have it. It doesn't sound like you even want to work there at all let alone move up the ladder. Start looking somewhere new, fast.

let them have it. I'm sure you're going to grow in your new company.

LOL why are you hesitating?

If you think you deserve the position then go for it.
