But that latter transaction is employment, which would be filed under "making", I would think.

I can see the idea that Billy doesn't look askance at bumming off of the women he's sleeping with, but still would find it hard to take a loan or free money from someone of a higher social rank than him.

IMO, both the above statements can be referring to Mrs. Mullin. She may be paying him for his work at the carousel, but surely that ain't all...and how are we to know whether that's an honest salary or just an "arrangement" of sorts? I tend to think that where Mrs. M is concerned, he's both making and taking. ;-)
