Gnyandip General Stores

You can find Gnyandip General Stores on Mayur Park Road in Aurangabad. We are sitting right near Varad Hospital, so we see a lot of different people coming and going every single day. Some are locals from Mayur Park who just need milk or bread, and others are folks visiting the hospital who need a quick bottle of water or some tissues. The shop itself is pretty packed with stuff from floor to ceiling. I try to organize it, but with so many small items like pens, batteries, and different snacks, it always looks a bit cluttered. That is just the way a general store is, I suppose. It’s a busy road, so there is always the sound of scooters and cars honking outside. Sometimes I forget to order certain things, and then a customer asks for it, and I have to tell them to come back tomorrow. It’s a bit embarrassing, but they usually understand. My stool behind the counter isn't the most comfortable, but I spend most of my time standing up to reach the top shelves anyway. The hospital nearby means we stay open a bit later than some other shops on the street. It’s not easy work, and my back hurts by the end of the evening, but it’s good to be part of the neighborhood. I’ve seen this area change a lot over the years, yet the shop stays mostly the same.
