50 Years Of Love

50 years of love .. "Syed" refuses to close the barber despite heart disease 45 years ago, the master of butcher worked with his father in the barber shop. The sixteen man absorbed the profession from his father. He had a steady routine, between his work in the aesthetic region, and his house in Sayyida Zeinab, the father moves every day, does not prevent him from the barber shop diagnosing him with weak heart and arteries, if the illness intensifies him and he is forced to stay at home "to stay from the worst days of my life." In front of the old shop in the "Al-Rahba prison" neighborhood, the butcher sits daily from noon to eight in the evening. His seat overlooking the street does not go away until the client comes, "My moment is greatly scratched ... The origin is, I am not scattered, but I am shaved." The owner of the place works alone, and it is not preferred to hire one of them, "To answer a boy, I need to pay him a lot, which is my doub, who comes to me?" The butcher gets 50 pounds a day from working in the shop. "There are no obvious hours. I need to open and close as I am." The pension that he gets from the state backs him, since 1970 he pays state insurance "and now my salary is taken 800 pounds every month" Sixty man of the number. "Hidden" is the word he always responds to, but the situation became worse after the disease attacked him, several months ago. "Gali dizziness suddenly occurred and my nerves were negative," the father went to the doctor. "So tell me you have fat on the arteries." The treatment became necessary, "I kept spending about 300 pounds a month," while his wife already suffers from a chronic allergy on the chest, with which she needs permanent treatment. Despite everything, a man loves his work, he gets only his weekly leave, and sometimes he does not, he works full-time on official vacations, it is not about his profit as much as "love". He respected his profession, "I was trained in this shop," and he recalled when the situation was better. The deterioration of conditions is related to several things; the change in time “the store offers progress, but the tools are developing, and I am not able to make a major development.” The situation became worse with his illness. “The one who doesn’t know, I stand very much and don’t have the patience to do new stories.” . The space does not exceed a few meters, it can barely accommodate two shaving chairs, another seat to wait, signs of time appear on the shop, shaving tools crowding on the table, while the image of the butcher's father appears clear to visitors. The butcher is the place of his home; there is also a picture of his two sons. During the course of his life, the sixtieth man considered leaving the profession “She is a few fils ... but I used to come back and say this to me”, while he regretted when he remembered getting a government job “At that time, I was working with my father in the store and earning more than a job”, perhaps more I realize the saying that “your merry gal was fondling his soil”, as he would have guaranteed a more comfortable life, as he put it, especially since he would pay off a loan to Nasser Insurance Bank “I used to take it because of the permissibility of my daughter.” Al-Jazzar tried to teach the profession to his son Muhammad, “He stood with me for a while, but there was no inclination for him, and his job was like an accountant.” The man is proud of what his son has reached him. “I taught him and his sister, and I did what I have with them.” Because this is my life.
