Ruling: First we express our disgust with bus. The Torah strictly forbids taking interest on loans. Although many people legitimately rely on the heter iska to reframe loans so that the lender can be compensated for putting out money, this should not cover cases of ridiculously high interest, to individuals in need or businesses. Chazal say that one who lends with interest can expect his finances to crumble.
The first issue to decide is whether pl is a worker or a partner and whether that makes a difference. Pl says that he was just a worker and therefore is not responsible for losses and should not be a cosigner, whereas def says that he was a partner. Regarding purposeful mismanagement, i.e., giving more credit than he was allowed, it does not make a difference, as a worker who takes the business’ money without permission is responsible for it. Nevertheless, the determination will have some impact on certain points.
It is not accurate to call pl a simple worker. He was bus’s main active person, the business was known publicly as his, and he received 15% of net profits. Therefore, he can be seen as a partner on some level.
Nevertheless, pl is entitled to a salary, even for the final months during which there were not profits. First of all, the type of relationship, in which the business is essentially owned by def, makes it appropriate that pl would receive a salary, and the reason this was not initially done in a classic set payment was on technical grounds (not one that pl should be proud of). Furthermore, in the mediation paper prepared by Mr. P., there is a large sum earmarked for pl’s salary, and it is apparently marked with a check by def. We do not accept def’s convoluted explanation for agreeing to salary payment.

Is physical strength and fitness a necessity or an ideal? Although it if often totally overlooked among topics of Judaism, Rav Kook writes that it clearly is also a necessity to deter the many enemies of Israel, but even in Y'mot HaMashiach, in the Messianic era, to a certain extent, it's ideal continues even after our enemies will have been finished off.
