Life and register readings
Muharrem Bey was born in Shkodër (İşkodra) in 1863/64 (AH 1280) into the İslam community. At about 16, in 1878/79, Muharrem began work in Shkodër. Every annual entry from 1878/79 to 1902/03 places Muharrem in the same post, Evrak Kalemi mülazımı, in Shkodër, the birthplace. A career like this is rare; fewer than 5 per cent of the 2,755 officials whose entries span 20 years or more stayed in one place throughout.
Pay rose from 30 kuruş a month in 1880/81 to a peak of 255 in 1902/03, in Shkodër, when 27 per cent of paid officials earned less. Over 23 years the salaries add up to 35,700 kuruş, 32 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned. The final annual entry is for 1902/03.
Career and salary#
Log scale: equal steps are equal ratios. The median of the same title is drawn for the years in which at least 5 officials with that title had a salary, and the median of the same province for the years in which at least 5 officials were paid in the province of the official's salary that year.
