Ang General Stores

Ang General Stores is tucked away in Nanjappa Layout, specifically at No 12 on the 1st Cross. It is a relatively quiet part of Adugodi compared to the main roads nearby. We have been serving the people around this area for many years now. The shop carries the usual mix of things like shampoo sachets, biscuits, rice, and basic stationery. Bangalore weather is usually quite nice, so we keep the front doors open throughout the day. I spend a lot of my time organizing the glass jars of sweets on the front counter. Kids from the nearby houses often come in with a few coins, and it takes them a long time to choose what they want. It makes me smile every single time I see it. We are not a big supermarket, just a small corner place where you can get what you forgot during your big weekly shopping trip. Sometimes the delivery truck cannot find the layout because the streets here are a bit narrow and confusing. My desk is usually covered in old receipts and small notebooks where I track my inventory. It is definitely not a high-tech operation. We use a simple plastic calculator and a lot of memory. The neighbors know us well, and I know which brand of detergent most of them prefer to use. It is a steady life, keeping the shelves stocked and the floor swept for the customers. We just want to be there when someone runs out of salt.
