And besides, your supposedly unique position aside
Ahem – You didn’t read the generalization at the end of his post – “You do not know how many people need to phone for business (which is most people nowadays)”.
Another reason why im an am haaretz. Never got why yiddishkeit allows stuff for parnasah reasons. You’l tell me darkei noam or something but i still dont get it. Anyone know how to work this out? Chol hamoed- great example. Daver haavud? thats okay then, otherwise youre being mevazeh moados and dont have a chelek in olam habah.
Yiddishkeit does not allow stuff for Parnassah reasons at all. I touched upon this before. The point isn’t that we allow ????? if it is a ??? ?????; the point is that if it is a Davar HaAvud, it isn’t a ?????.
No Rav I have heard of allows unfiltered Internet for Parnassah. The point is that people who need it for Parnassah can make arrangements for the minimal amount of Internet necessary, and to customize the filters to accommodate the work. Obviously this will not allow access to the real filth online, and should hopefully be able to block out anything below your standards.
Of course, if no other job is available and your only option is a job which needs access to Shmutz, ask your LOR for advice. (He will probably say ???? ??? ?????, but hey – who am I to pasken?)
