The Common Room / First Waiter of the Robes In Ordinary to George II 1740

Is anyone able to shed light on what the above may actually have entailed for someone who was appointed to this role please?  Would it have meant that he was a courtier?  Would he have had a role to play in providing the King's clothing?  Or something else?

Looking forward to learning more.

What does the motto ‘QUI INVIDET MINOR EST FUIMUS’ mean please.  As I understand it, all but the last word is a recognised motto adopted by various aristocratic families in the past meaning 'He who envies is inferior'.  The final word means 'we have been' or 'we were', but this doesn't really make sense when added to the rest of the phrase 'He who envies is the lesser we were'?

Help and suggestions much appreciated.
