Life and register readings

Mustafa Reşid Efendi was born in Burdur in 1873/74 (AH 1290). Work began in Burdur in 1886/87, at about 14. Every annual entry from 1886/87 to 1907/08 places Mustafa Reşid in the same post, Tahrirat Kalemi stajyeri, in Burdur, the birthplace. Fewer than 5 per cent of the 2,755 officials whose entries span 20 years or more stayed in one place throughout. The lists give Azil (dismissal) for 1910/11 instead of a title.

Pay rose from 82 kuruş a month in 1888/89 to a peak of 330 in 1895/96, in Burdur, when 38 per cent of paid officials earned less. The peak lasted a single year; the next list gives 100 kuruş. In all, 14 years of salary come to 24,288 kuruş, 35 per cent of what an official on the median salary earned in those years. The final annual entry is for 1910/11.
