Life#
Süleyman Şakir Bey was born in Arapgir in 1849/50 (AH 1266). The record gives the community as Muslim (Müslüman) and the nationality as Turkish.
Schooling recorded: Sıbyan Mektebi, with 4 years of schooling recorded. The personnel records also mark the telegraph school. The record marks no qualification (diploma, certificate, training or decoration). Languages recorded, with the skill words of the record: Turkish, with Kitabet.
First work is recorded in Istanbul in 1869/70 (AH 1286). The official was then about 19 years old. The record gives 6 years of unpaid apprenticeship (mülazemet) before the first salary. The first-salary field gives 400 kuruş a month. At the first annual entry, in 1875/76, the official was about 25 years old.
The first annual entry, for 1875/76, shows Muhabere Memuru in Burdur, with 400 kuruş a month. In 1878/79 the record shows Müdür Vekili in Manavgat, with 500 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Burdur). In 1879/80 the record shows Müdür Vekili in Isparta, the salary going from 500 to 475 kuruş a month (before: Müdür Vekili in Manavgat). In 1880/81 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Burdur, with 475 kuruş a month (before: Müdür Vekili in Isparta). In 1882/83 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Erdek, the salary going from 475 to 500 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Burdur). In 1883/84 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Divriği, with 500 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Erdek). In 1885/86 the record shows Muhabere Memuru in Arapgir, with 500 kuruş a month (before: Muhabere Memuru in Divriği). No annual entry is recorded for 1881/82.

The median salary of all officials that year was 582.5 kuruş. Over 15 years with a salary the median is 500 kuruş a month, with 2 rises and 1 cut. The largest rise, 100 kuruş, is seen in 1876/77. From the first salary to the last the salary grew by 1.5 per cent a year on average.
