When Is Craftsman Work Permissible On Chol Hamoed? - Rabbi Yakov Zev Smith

some clear. So sad. Welcome everyone to today's when is craftsman work permissible. sponsoring calling 7188518651 email [clears throat] the truth is always very challenging because who has time to learn you're busy with of course you're busy and comes and they're silus and the po bemoan the fact that there are very few that really know and I'm certainly not one of them I'm going to try to give you a little of a background to the common shilas regarding the male um when a person needs a major repair plumbing electricity appliances and we'll talk about other type of shilas like this that come up every don't forget this year we have a fully narrow there are six days in there are five days. There's no shabas this year. So we really have to know the properly what says a lot about is actually the you have to keep p seven days and it's not true. P is only the first day and the last day in the middle. So that is the one of the four you look at that other as well that make the same approach. The Torah calls it a Y. It's only it's a Y that's a little more mut than a regular. >> [clears throat] >> And this is why really the truth is we should mention there are three levels in there. Of course, the shabas has the most it's the has more and is even more than but in fact that's the is whenever it's fine whenever it's there are those that hold it and the truth is when the acting indicates it's more a than a real but I must mention he quotes those that hold those that hold but he said had they seen other that I saw they would also agree that when it's and therefore and I quote don't be quick to be so in other words Ideally we treat like a and suffic. So again it's not a steer the fact that it's more m than y because y is more than chabas the person gave us three different levels of shab now unfortunately as we know is often mistreated is a zilo and maybe even it's an innocent mistake because after all I drive my car which is thousands of per minute when you drive your car the So is we do we put on the lights and we put on the appliances but it's not a that's the that's the is certain only and even some those that are we'll see it's a when it's when it's a as we'll see but let's not forget and shimmel member of the peric bay So is going on because the fact that people look at it it's not it's not and has this Mishna had to remind us is a very terrible crime. I just saw the z he says although there are case where it's to make repairs in it's not done even though it's why you have to be careful not to do anything that might imply a zily. So even though it's mut stay far away now when is it mut so we're going to get an excellent start an excellent insight says you know how to write has take vacation more than that to corrections even one o in a Safe for Ezra. What's safe for Ezra? So, Rashi Taka points out it's a it's a printing error. It's safe for Azor. It seems there was one safe kept in the Azor that was the most it was the most accurate and that was something like the this you could know what's right and what's wrong. And believe it or not, they found a a mistake in that. Now, what would you do? comes right after I got to correct him right so no you can't correct or write even ah you'll ask I don't understand I I I write my shopping list so I write your shopping list why can I write why can I correct but the question is stronger in the same you know how to write an IOU if you want to lend money typically write a star. This you're not allowed to do. But if the mala does not trust you unless you give him a star, you're allowed to. So again, it's you're allowed to write an just not to write a. So the answer to this is probably the biggest that we need for today is based on a says to press clothing to iron clothing on why it's not it's now again that's going to be the key words key words for today. When someone irons clothing, you don't have to be that smart. You don't have to go to training and the job that you do is reflects that it's not the most professional work to do. A better example, when you write your shopping list, you're not writing it like with saffris or calligraphy, artistic, it's regular writing. So regular writing is called that's done is [clears throat] so that's why to make your shopping list or to iron your clothing is and it's only but are the next words but to pleat that means in in a skirt in pants to put pleat means to put in the crease that wasn't there and I rashly expl explains you need someone an um to do it because it's supposed to last. It has to stay. [clears throat] So typical ironing is mut it's a but pleading a skirt a pants whatever it is which needs an um and has to be done in the proper way that's a is not even so everything is because when you're talking about a shopping list or an IU they are both but to write a safer Even for that you need a which means the and the are both professional craftsmanship work. So that's the basic now this is quot and the and explains when you do something of an omnis that is awesome. The truth is that we find the same concept in the Mishna. You allow to make a Maka a protective fence because this is only you have to suffice with a we'll soon see if you have no other safer whatsoever except the one that's plebs because that will be as we'll soon see which is a whole different but we understand the very well basically But the problem for now is so when is it ever so this is a good question and this is actually a a lot to do when we write to so Mr. explains if you which means if you don't do it now you're going to end up causing a loss in other words even which is but if it causes a loss if you neglect it then it's to do even [clears throat] the is maybe I the inspiration is why is mut just because it's of no so you lose a few dollars the what's the whole of tells us it was given to us so we'll spend our time in Bish making up for lost time during the rest of the year if someone is going to have a a potential do of he's going to be so worried and distracted he won't have [clears throat] the ravion is that if someone's going to be worried about his he won't be able to learn he can't concentrate. [clears throat] So I realized then that the of is to keep us focused on and sometimes the is the same reason keep us focused on and on the so the two out of the three reasons speaks volumes of what is supposed to be don't be distracted with anything now there is a third reason and that's mentioned by the safe harmonic the end mentions it waste money that's inappropriate and that's why we know clearly that is even a [clears throat] now the what probably led and brisket to say that develop people make a mistake they think is like you know in between it's not true is like but And the truth is in the said the Torah says step one is as explains the Torah gave it to the to decide when it's but at the end of the day when say it's and more so because it's called a Many people don't say they say it's to reinforce this equation and are both have to be dealt with properly. Now to apply [clears throat] this more specifically, let's talk about a following sh. Someone asked me this. He's not sure. He has sees a little of a leak. He doesn't know if it's a or not. Maybe get away with it. How did view of it? So until today we would say it's holding the if you hold that if you go with those that is only [clears throat] it should be or maybe we'll say like we often say [clears throat] since the reason since the reason is to keep the to keep the learning So once you have a legitimate a real suffic that's going to bother you. You're going to tell yourself don't don't worry about it because only a suffic but a person's worrying. So zil all three reasons would indicate even if it's the even if we're going to say it's the but the reason would dictate even a suffic you're allowed to take necessary precautions and says that even a usually we should say true but if the reason is to keep the and the involvement the learning going that would even be required when you have a suffic of it of course of course person that's neurotic but everything under the sun is a suffic so he himself he's a suffic if he's if he's coming or going so you can't make every suffic into a suffic but a legitimate suffic also and the say this that let's say it's a v of it but the work you're doing might not work it might that help. So the suffic is if it's going to help it's also because if you're not going to try it's really it's really going to be very distracting [clears throat] and the the interesting and says himself says it's a it's but we don't treat like a we treat it like a vi distracting and That's how to define the word means. So we would think it has to be said right like you find but why did the why did the why use why you say so here it's very likely we could say another because the is not because such a big the is because it's distracting it's disturbing it's taking away from the and as early as says it's not totally necessarily in a big loss. When someone feels he's wasting money, it's disturbing to him and it's distracting. So it's has to be means that it's something he's wasting money for no reason in his mind. And that's why it makes sense and all the say this. It's the ink when he talks about he says a person a wise person doesn't waste anything because it's all their butters bria given for a purpose and even to waste a garel a mustard seed is already a question about tashkas now it's a kdish because it's not even but the message is of guiding us if The third reason that we said why is because of that would work even in a small amount and say does not necessarily mean that's but when someone's mind what's going on is disturbing him then it's to have an care I'm going to ask a question I I don't have a very good ter but I'd love to hear from the let's say you finished learning you learned in your study like what are you supposed to you and you want to go to the suka or go to sleep and you're not going to use the study the whole night. So impulsively you reach out to close a light in the study. My question is what's the to close light in the study? closing a light is a okay but and I don't believe at all that this would be a this would be a a how much how many pennies would how many cost to burn a light all night so why is it mut I'll say but closing a light is is only my true what's So I found this in he has this problem and he quotes that I mentioned and he says of it is when people have the perception something's being wasted and he says that even though the cost is very minimal but you know why why is the light burning for no reason. Now the truth is as time goes on people are worried less and less about closing the light but people used to close the light before they went out. So he says it's not but it's a it's disturbing and he says that it's a different form of it's a wasting and then he asked parenthetically and by the way if you tell me you can't close a light so you have to keep the light on for eight or eight or nine days straight that might add up but I think is that it means to say is when someone says I have to I can't close why you're not but it's burning for no reason maybe it's using as something of wasting as opposed to and take it the is to do it it's probable I saw in another says this that it could be the is it's not even a it's a it's a flick of the hand of the finger so that would be but until further notice closed Closing light is mut. We have to know exactly what's the head. Next question is when you definitely person definitely has a dber of it. There's a leak in the in the roof. Can he do a good job two coats or he'll do one now and after you worry about it and how about once he's doing it can he fix the whole roof. So again this is another so why not do the job properly and do what you have to do and that's it. Once you have a head of do the job necessary if typically it's two coatings do that as well. Now this and all later quote this it's based on that once you have a head to the fixed you do the normal job. Now of course doesn't mean let's say someone smashed into someone's yard and broke the gate. So he has to put up a new gate. So if for protection he needs a gate up but he doesn't have to paint it. the dber of it means you should take away the the the the potential da d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d d damage or or or or sakono or fear of theft but there's no to do the whole roof once you're doing part of it because that's not of it. So typically we do a we do the right job and tab in says if there's mish no difference one or two so maybe t but typically when you have to tell the worker to come back a second time to finish up the job he charges another you know fee so that would be a do of so the you could do the job properly but not the whole job and thinking as if it's like all or nothing do what's necessary to remove the do >> [clears throat] >> A very important question. We have this all the time. People call up, they have a a leak, they have a problem with an appliance and who should I call? So, it's a wonderful sensitivity we supposed to have when we need a job. When we go shopping, buy Jewish, hire Jewish, you need a worker craftsman that doing great jobs. But on we have to wonder is it really because the whole of of is which means if he doesn't do it it's going to be go from bad to worse it's going to be a lot of damage or minimal damage whatever it is but if you could have a go do it there's no need for any to so since the is and you have an option to do maybe he takes to the extent if you have a that's going to charge you aid will do it for free you have to use the because the dra of is not to get paid money for the job because it's normal to pay money for the job that's not a but the is only when there's no other choice hey you have a very a viable option have the guy do it feel and t the seem to say this for another reason because when you learn it's pretty clear that when let's say there's only available there's no go available can the go can the yid charge money for his job he could do the job because you have to relieve someone's that's not his roof but it's another's roof so should fix it but what's the take money doesn't to leave the do of so it seems that ideally aid that works should not take money so but they do charge so I can't say it's wrong some if he wants money allowed to give it to him but to avoid this issue the seem to all agree ideally when possible have a do the job I must mention don't call because you don't know how reliable they are and you know when you don't have mishba dictating your life you end up doing patchup jobs and and no substance. I know someone that a guy really messed him up and did a lot of damage more than good. So make sure that you have a reliable guy. If not to take time call a person from the phone book, I wouldn't advise that. You don't know what he's going to do. But if you have a worker that's reliable, it seems all the pesk agree it would be better to do it and is not a factor because has to keep only of it. So this is the and let's talk more specifically I'd like to discuss many sh let's start with a broken window. Okay. So it used to be a glass window which is even dangerous but even today's windows the windows is doesn't close it's broken. You don't want to, you know, it's it's it doesn't keep out any intruders. So, no doubt about it. Even though it's a but this people are nervous, sleep in a house and the windows are open. It's that would be a the lock malfunction, it's broken, whatever it is. So, you need a um we can't fix it. But being in a home without a lock is a dra of and is mut someone asked the shila the wheelchair broke and you need some you know soldering you need a m to repair the wheelchair so the em is the person's not in danger stay home but here I saw and I I think it's ais says this that to tell a person to be homebound under house arrest is people like to go to sh they like to go social like to go to children a family, but to tell someone that you have to be home all days cuz you can't fix the the the wheelchair that's never speaks about taking off certain coverings on on a wound whatever the case is. So the between a which is which is awesome now not negated case but says he has no pain if you don't remove this guil he's not going to go out the whole whole shabas because he's embarrassed he looks funny so not going out of shabas so so it's it's not it's a of you know social life or emotional health. So when someone cannot go out that's the biggest dra of it. Even though he's okay and he's clinically he's not sick but if he needs the wheelchair should be fixed on that will be dra of it. The beautiful question we hear this all the time want to write whether write over or rewrite writing on so there's no sh because this is a this is a he's writing with his pen and it's also a and indeed if you heard you're allowed to write it because you shouldn't forget it. So it sound like the is more than just but the taz is not happy with this and says there's more than that that is limiting the t says I want to expand the somewhat that let's say a person heard on and he has good memory he'll remember it he'll sit down after he'll have to rework it but he'll get it so there's no do of it so but you know there is Because after to learn more you learn to you figured out the now. So after you have to learn more but what are you going to have to do? Go back to the and try to restructure it and figure it out. So the is quoted often than wasting time. Now you're not really wasting time but you could be learning more and now you have to go back and review what you learned till now. the taz is saying the biggest dra of it is wasting time. So therefore that also qualifies for a of writing. So even if it's not going to forget the but if you're going to learn now and later you could do more learning that's of now this what we tell all the time has long this this year it's four full days. So you know give him to learn but if he can't write you know today especially are busy writing a lot he loses the the of it the gishmak of it I tell them take even take old notes and rewrite it there's no dra of it but for time quality of learning quantity of learning and it's a much better learning when you could write and the t said that now I do know I know the the they say he wrote on like a regular day. No restrictions whatsoever. His the stipul he's afraid to write. So each has their own feeling. But one thing I will tell you I'll read the chubin. It's an incredible written by one of theis one of the he asked and he received responses. I don't know how he received it but this is what he asked. Can I write on? And the response was he and they continued that these that the most beloved thing in the versam's eyes and he calls it are those magolius those gems of limitra So therefore, so then he says if for a few says for those and if you do write so again if someone knows he could learn just as well without writing. No, but if he if he knows like most of us feel that the learning will be compromised then let it be because the whole isra so in this case especially this is a this concludes there's no doubt about it a gardener shows up on it happens all the time they know about chabas and maybe but is out of their range So the embassies technically you could be mal and say I didn't tell them they want to come to even but here we're worrying about something called zil something on our property we don't let him do it we wouldn't let him do it on even though you can also say but the shabas the noise the is disparaging shabas needs more So would be a zily and tell him please come back even though again might find a but we find too important to compromise on. Someone asked this question he made a he made a kdish on if I'm not mistaken he had a baby girl on but he wanted to make a a kdish and he couldn't make it in. So he wanted he he wanted to rent a tent and put up a tent in his backyard and how make a kdish question is can you construct a tent on see you can't wait to put up the tent you know let's say the baby was born before yam so that's called but here the baby's born on y so he couldn't do before y so the inab is constructing a tent is a is a of oil but on and He told me that this tent that he rent was a small one, not one of these major ones. This is a so believe it or not it's a perfect if he's pushed off doing it until that's awesome. But this would be a simple case of of of repairing appliances whether it's an oven, a refrigerator, a microwave, an urn, a appliances is within a different besides and that's really the called we know you're allowed to cook and bake. You got to take a why. So the extends to certainly and this is even so therefore it to repair an oven crockpot again whatever is needed and there's no other alternative and earn breaks. So again you need a to repair it but that would be the of is also but this is now I do know that an oven is not it's but the say this extends of which is also so would be included in the of besides now even though you do need an um to do it. So the of will not work but the overrides that a broken refrigerator a broken freezer. So the freezer broken a few hours it won't get spoiled but you can't manage the days of if you don't fix it you're not going so it can't last that long. So this again would be a case of and although you need a um would be fine. Someone asked interesting to to repair his washing machine and dryer. So I told him, you know, we don't make washes on. Yeah, but he has children and grandchildren and and he has to make washes anyhow. So he's right. If he needs it on, so it's a it's a true but then of he has no clothing. The whole of washing is with a gaval of a because you have no choice. Dryers the pim say dryers perhaps should not be repaired. You could you could dry it by hand. You could hang things up outside or inside. But definitely a washing machine if you need it on on it would be you could you could pay professionals to do it. But that would be a dra of it. Now a dishwasher is interesting. Dishwasher also needs a but believe it or not people wash dish with their hands. We do it on so the pkim seem to say that that's not enough of a the fact that you it's easier. You could wash the dishes by hand unless there's an extenduating circumstance. A person can't wash whatever by hand. This would not be a of a because you could wash it by hand. Last year we had sukis that was very cold. If you remember it was much later in the season and there was shas where people wanted to put on the steam and it wasn't working. So the question is can you repair steam heat on? So this is the tells even regarding Shabas I call people are sensitive to excessive cold and you even call a onas to put on the steam on the heat. So certainly on to repair the heating the tricky question this year last year was much later this year is very early we might have problems with the air conditioning sh because let's say it's not working and person can't manage so we might think well listen you'll manage without it I'll manage without it could be but let me tell you what is as we You know Rabenu Aadesh had a certain relationship with Antonyinus the melik and once antinus was traveling he said Rabenu give me a bra. So he says I give you a braha. You should be protected from the cold. So says that's a brah I could put I don't need you. I can put on a sweater. I'm fine. You're right. So you know what I give you? That you should be protected from the heat. So that's a good so from we see not just story an unbelievable insight some the the the the pain of excessive heat could be worse than excessive cold excessive cold beyond put on a sweater and another sweater but heat you can't escape from the heat >> okay second laa Um the the would be like you may like you as so why do we find the heat we didn't have any we have an air conditioning today he feels to have a go put on the air condition on shabas when it's taka very very hot it's unbearably heat hot is and it's very mant of course if some people are are a little more tolerant they have they could deal more with the heat so Each person has a sensitivity but in that if it's very very hot and the should be repaired even in the was but he said do it in a way that would not be mazal in mo stern used to say to put on air conditioning or or in in a in a home but not in a He goes because in it's a zil unless you could do it no one's there. In other words, these type of things create a certain zil which really trying to eliminate but says it's mut in that case to do it as long as it doesn't create a zilz. Now someone asked the question the dining room lights were not working but there's an you could use candles. So here you have you need an um to fix it. But then again we are used to it even though I'm old they didn't have lights but eating in the dark we know from Shabas Shabas you don't have the full shabas. So the say that to sit in the dark dark dining room and even they put a candle or two and they call it the candle light but we're not used to that type of ambiance. We need light. So this would be of and repairing the lights in the dining would be mut glasses that broke and you need an to repair it. So if someone can't see and they can't walk in the street so obviously but there's a more significant that we have to know the says inv it's an unbelievable insight on based on a and listen to the And could do anything regarding beautifification and everything everything is all beautifification is. Why is it this is a form of this is their to look nice and of course for ush that's all nice but the end of the day there is a of says for us what is the the is putting on heat that's but and here the P say this clearly but when something is needed for that person and we'll soon see what what that means that is considered so that's why on we don't take hot showers but the say you're allowed to and maybe on on it's not enough to allow a shower on Y But enough of that's even more asked about fixing eyelasses on chabas. Now unfortunately he doesn't write the reason he says what you said was correct. You're allowed to repair eyeglasses even in a and I believe the is there like it's not eating but surviving the shab in says that's the same replies to repairing hearing aids even though we need a real um but this considered a a phone is not working. So again, it used to be a landline phone in a house and if it wasn't working, it was problems. So the embassy, we can't say it's a saka to be home without a phone, but it definitely uncomfortable and a little nerve-wracking. You never know, maybe someone's calling in, maybe have to call out. So the pkim assumed that to leave a house without a phone is something we could call. Again, we're not eating the phone obviously, but it's a basic necessity that leaves a person very concerned and worried what will happen. You know, nothing should happen, but you have to have a phone. So that's why in the in in earlier times a phone you know phone company came down and it was a big uh peressia but to leave a home where children especially children older people are living is somewhat of a today when people have cell phones and the truth is if your phone breaks they tell you we'll be there you know within a month we'll be there don't worry but ma we'll we'll we'll transfer all your phone calls that you get on this line to your cell phone so the cell phone will suffice. So probably today if you do have a cell phone then don't repair the regular phone you can manage and and you're not losing anything as far as the necessity of having a phone. The Ramo quotes what I told you earlier that a person that Isa could do all type of beautifification but you look in the gor it's an incredible days was sitting and said probably this is an a young woman but an an old woman not. So protested protested says I swear even your grandmother even standing one foot in the in the in the in the b in in the ca why so rashi explains because this is the nature of nashim now it's something for a man you have to understand it's almost y tell us what's for man for nashim the famous we go on and on. But the point this is a tremendous insight that makes every morning this is her nature. It's not a weakness. It's the bria. So why do I say this? Because what does that mean? Nice for God. more than than you could handle. So when coming and there's a it's a attitude it's there and you see this come out everything is and I'll tell you I'll leave it as a because but it's a beautiful let's say set the before okay my son is caught in the rain and she's embarrassed she can't go to the second day I have to reset the but everybody knows that is a so what's the so if she's so embarrassed she won't go to maybe but there's some say could be this is a special include in our maybe this also but then again if this that says and even if she's not married but that's the nature of it could to go to when it was not and maybe this included the special that we we don't take haircuts or shave or launder on on but if you don't do it you if you do it on you might end up doing it always and not doing before so then maybe the the of setting a like washing a including the of and that even though it's a person feels uncomfort but that's a special so that's setting a this unusual attitude gives us but no doubt about it it gives us an insight of our our daughters this is the and has to be satisfied especially in Someone asked this question, the elevator was not working. Can he have of course you need an um to repair it? So obviously if people installed an elevator then people need it. So again it would be keeping a person under house arrest otherwise. So that's one one but there's another hat I must mention at least briefly says why is that? Because if it's a contemporary example of would be an elevator because typically you don't have it in a private home. You could have it in a shul in a shopping store in a apartment building. So if there is a that would legitimize even doing a the is what does it mean to him? So we think like just 600,000 people. It's like the the know could be even three people like believe it or not what is three people. So it would apply as well. So so therefore an elevator repair which is probably or the mikvah repairs repairing a washing dry in the mikvah. So that the is also the only issue is there are more limits has to be so we could say but says something incredible he says people ask me he would say those that work for government agencies I don't want to say name there are so many wonderful organizations but they're organizations whether they're funded by governments or volunteers but they're there to help the rabbi in in a wide array of of of scenarios. They could be open people that there to help with with with food and other things, whatever it may be. Again, it's it's a wide spectrum of of of of organizations. But these would be I saw an interesting Shilish. So they put up these paranches bleaches we called them in English. So that's a question is is that they say what do you mean it's but says if it's so I saw one of the say yeah because if not going to have these bleaches there's going to be stopping. So it is a avoiding a a a form of but if it makes the more manageable that's probably the of of a general question is there a mitzvah in other words we see a mitzvah allows us to ask is there regarding So the two rights the terror has to be not a because a mitzvah of keeping and here's the catch. If you could do the mitzvah after or it's a mitzvah it's a mitzvah it could wait. So then it's on a mitzvah. But let's say you have a mitzvah. Let's you have a shil putting up and for some reason you need a let's say it's on a on a steel door. If you don't do it, you're going to lose a mitzvah every moment. It's like the this so writing that you don't need it. Why you doing that? Why are you doing it? Do it after. But let's say you have only say is this one that needs correction of how you do it. Now this would would imply maybe it's more than implied. This would indicate if someone wants to make a a he shouldn't leave the the last letters to be written on because that he could do before that's there's no that's avoid but the point seems to be this a mitzvah that's versus just a a and it's avoid So now we have to rethink a little bit. We said that's true. If there's no other you you could correct it typically it should not be done even someone built a suk and he's not an um obviously and the suka collapsed. Can he rebuild the ony? So if it's a today most you know it's basically all follow directions but otherwise it won't last. So this look happened the first time that you didn't call it um some people have sukas in in in unusual areas that they need some type of of of of a a permanency. You can't just do the the typical. So if you need the the otherwise you won't be able to sit in the suk that will qualify for be a to make a very beautiful fancy no even though it's a nice but it's not a mitzvah and that should be limited to a putting up almost always is a mah that's fine putting on some people buy until they they put the onto the beggar it takes them it pushed them time to time if that's a and if they'll wear it on on on the second day that would be fine as I told you earlier the correcting say is the biggest how important how careful we have to be to make sure that the taco works the based on a misha says a protective fence is not but the caution says as well that's because the mice will do the trick. But if for some reason the mice will not protect anybody then you have to do a m because of the physical danger but it's also the so you have to learn the and understand that the mish is talking about in a regular case that is good enough. He puts a knock some beams of wood and keep a protection but if need be the is also fixing the which is need of course for the upcoming shabas whether it's or the last days. So that would be a people are going to carry not know the is broken. Also the fact that you need people that got used to the is this considered and more often than not fixing is a so therefore that was a it's only no real and more than that it's only a you don't need muchness and that's fine. Plumbing needs basically if a person's honest with himself he knows when it's a do of it or not. But a leak has to be found and has to be treated. It it could deteriorate. That's a real potential do of now stuffed sink stuff. So you have to just know the mitas if he needs it. If he has a a lot of children and one's not one bath not enough, one sink's not enough. So first of all plunging me and you do that's a but if he needs more serious work then if he can't manage with what he has as it is this would be considered a a bathroom a sink is a real and even a would be m car repairs I think are the most challenging because car repairs are always a unless a jump start or fixing it flat but so what's is not a the only would be if he has to go visit or go to his parents to go to the and to to to hire car service to go both ways long distance out of state and wait and everything that might be a but in theory fixing a car is most problematic so I'm ask what are you worrying about fixing what about going in a car why isn't going in a car only because it's a it's a so he said I I think he was serious. He says, "Anybody knows how to drive to drive carefully or safe that you need an um but driving big deal. You put your foot on there go." So he tight driving a car is a miser. Now bicycle is certainly for children is very important. Bicycle is hard to know what's you have to look at it. But one thing I will say someone asked me he bought a bicycle and it arrived in can he assemble on his own? I said, "I never did this before." And I asked around and most people told me you could do it just follow directions. Somebody said, "It's impossible. It's so confusing. I I'm getting the feeling that you could if you follow directions, you do it patiently. You don't need a misman." And therefore, that's mut lessons technically might be mut, but it's a zil and yumpt in a very big way. Some said, "But I want to learn after yumptive." I said, "You know what? learn a like gave us and after if you go your driving lessons the you know all senra is being you know misconstrued that's not the of repairing a bus believe it or not would be a of so it's more of a than a car that's even moving moving there's it might not be per se but it's the zil It's the attention. It's the whole you know activity that really is disparaging and typical regarding moving on on unless someone has no place to live. It's it's a very rare situation but typically moving should be done before after y sewing on a button to a begged or fixing a hem. So here this is a little challenging because the says that of sewing is considered. So once it's not enough so if someone has a tear in his pants and if he doesn't fix it it's going to get much worse. That's a that's even an um but let's say putting on a button or fixing the hem. So the pisk say that there is a ha of sewing with a with a means let's say if there's four holes in a button just do two of them do it that it stays and if the you'll you'll correct it now but this is a different once it's ove you're allowed you're allowed to do but here the the point is that felt that this is there's no had to do this because you could do you could you could do it and manage without this complete job so the p recommend And for a man to do it is always mut because that's a shiny. A man sewing is built in. Unless he's a tailor. But for an issue to do it should do it with a shino. The hem should be done. You know if you could use a safety pins even better. But basically you have to do it to get away with it. It should work. Someone asked about binding on you don't need a college degree but that's a because iron you can't do it. So that's only if it's for the use of the shul but to do it now for later. That's awesome. And last but not least, an important d to mention is the question of spot cleaning. Spot cleaning cleaning is very because even though made a special but the seem to be comfortable to say spot cleaning which mean just you have a stain here you want to get it off that is not spot cleaning is to be represent you should you should be able to should look like a mench. You don't want to have a revival. So spot cleaning is a that's not a so it's back to the old of a shak. is sponsoring a share calling Shara or email.com's campaign for to pay for the big air conditioning bill is still going on. Whoever was standing by the door. Hello. money for a car. >> What a car. >> Okay, everybody said a bus for the trip and leave after the seeum. Sh. >> Okay. One thing we learned has an unusual kaduca with unusual potential to focus on and that's why we treat like a like a is because we think it's not as important the attitude has to be proper and correct the main alone is only when we see to the extent even which is the most accurate even correcting is because unless it's a legitimate or or a or a there would be no as we said is only when you have writing a shopping list and IU any or writing bakl notes and learning is mut and advisable when when it's needed to learn that's not a problem of of because it's a basic the also say a suffic is also and means things are being wasted. It's the attitude a broken window would be considered a dra to keep safety closing. We had a wonder about why closing lights when it's not needed for sleeping why that's not a problem but the meaning is to close the lights a once you have a you could do the job properly but not the entire job just do what's necessary in in the quality of the work for the place the leak or the hole that should be done properly the better to get a worker than a yish worker if there's no choice only a has to do and paying him should ask him but he's allowed to take money like any pup. So you can't just say I'm not paying you. You have to work it out with him. A a lock a broken lock or a a wheelchair we said is mut because you have the person has to get out. The of applies to all mitz as we'll soon see a gardener should be told to come back after a putting up a tent a small tent which not is fine. Appliances for food is a washing machine if needed to be repaired. A dryer better not a dishwasher better not heating or AC or lights in dining room are all cases of eyeglasses hearing aid repairing a phone the phone again have a special broad of that's the we said includes even three people that need it fixing an elevator but it has to be at also So repairing a suka or putting up a suka if need be even but not putting onto a beggar is okay. Correcting nothing else is fine. do the lettering before a mah that needs that needs a should be is repairing an is plumbing work when is is also mut car repairs if there's a of not just that's fixing a bike if it's a het work is muting should not be done spot cleaning is mut and burum should not be Hey,
