Hi geeks,
So I've been at my job a year and yes I've been in industry for only a year. But where I work is a small hotel spa, 2 therapists and boss. I'm on minimum wage which is standard I guess and at the moment I'm working 6 days a week. I've asked my boss regarding holiday pay and she said she will have to let me know but thinks I'm only entitled to 20 days? And I asked to book a holiday off in September (plenty of notice) and she's now taking the huff and is being funny as that's when she is planning to go away which I had no idea! I have no idea what to do at my job now. I'm doing tasks that are of a senior therapist now and the list of jobs to do whilst being back to back with clients is increasing with her being no where to be seen. I have plenty of regulars and sell products but get no commission and she has basically said she can't let me go too as she is relying on me to run it whilst she is away? I don't know what to do? Do I confront her about it but I'm scared she will say like it or lump it? Apparently this happened to a girl before me and eventually she left as the work load was crazy for the pay she was receiving?
I've been searching for jobs and there is barely anything around that is full time, ultimately I want my own business but at the age of 20 am I being unrealistic here? Just need some advice as I'm ready to cry
