Only Christmas Day
In Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," Bob Cratchit, Scrooge's clerk, is paid for a day he did not work on Christmas Day. Although he typically only receives a meager wage for his labor, Scrooge begrudgingly allows him to take Christmas Day off without docking his pay, reflecting the societal norms of the time where workers often had that day off for holiday celebrations.
A receiving clerk gets paid between $25,000 and $40,000 per year. Their salary will depend greatly on the company they work for and their experience level.
He doesn't get paid.
The ghost of Christmas present repeats Scrooges retort of "are there no prisons, are there no work houses"
I get paid 9.50 an hour and work as a clerk at an independent pharmacy. The person that worked before me made 11.50 an hour and I've been there for two years without a raise so I could get maybe 10.50 if I wasn't such a pushover.
It depends on the store that you work at. I work at the one in Ohare Airport and I get paid $8.85 an hour. Thats the starting rate

The girl is Belle Scrooges fiancee. She sees that work and making money have taken over Scrooges life and his heart is taken by another, Gold !
Scrooge was married to his work. She realized that he loved money more than her.
The reply was a repeat of Scrooges comment "are there no prisons, are there no work houses"
It is hard and often dangerous, but in can be exciting and well paid.
