So I’m just going to list a few things here so you get a better idea:

  • retail showroom manager
  • central London
  • selling luxury products (as in if you have to as how much things are you can’t afford it)
  • small team so busy busy busy
  • driving sales
  • loads of admin
  • displays/new product launches
  • small company so you got to cover others if they are on holiday
  • general showroom running crap
  • you need great interpersonal skills
  • full time 40hrs/week

How much do you think this person should be earning ?

@Kat92 I agree. I appreciate that with the whole pandemic going they might not offer anything - and that’s fine too. But I feel like I have got to bring it up, not in a demanding way but at least to have a chat. Also if they can’t give me any raise at the moment I guess I would like to know when my next review would be scheduled for...
As I said the pandemic barley made a dent on our sales, if anything I feel like we are doing better than last year this time (I got to check this though)
I’m sorry I feel like a lot of industries are using the pandemic as an excuse - some of them obviously for very valid reasons - but I’d be very surprised if my boss would bring it up as a reason.

[quote Cherrybalm]@Doggybiccys the comment about being dim and not deserving a higher salary because of it.[/quote]
@Cherrybalm -I didn’t say OP was dim - I said they were coming across as being a bit dim. And if you come across that way, you are not going to be the best at the type of job OP loosely describes.

If you don't have an idea, then you can't really comment tbh

Well the OP has asked for people to comment, but nobody (apart from you) seems to know what her actual job is, so a bit pointless asking really.
