Cement Manufacturing Company Limited

Our office is tucked away in the Riverside Township over in Burnpur. If you know the area, it’s Flat B 3/6 on Road Number 4. It’s a quiet enough spot, though you can always feel the industrial pulse of Bardhaman just a little ways off. Cement Manufacturing Company Limited uses this place as a base to keep things organized. Usually, the morning starts with a cup of tea and a look at the delivery schedules that came in the night before. Being near the river means the breeze is alright sometimes, but the summer heat in West Bengal is no joke. We spend a lot of time on the phone or filling out logbooks. It is not a shiny glass building or anything like that, just a regular place where we do the work. The walls have a few maps pinned up and there’s always a stack of paperwork on the desk that needs sorting. We see the same faces every day, mostly people from the township or drivers coming in to check their routes. It’s a steady kind of life. We don't try to be something we aren't. We just handle the cement business for this side of the district and try to make sure everything adds up at the end of the month. Sometimes the power goes out and we just sit outside for a bit until it comes back on.
