You can find me over at Gokuldham Market 2, right on Killari Road. It’s a place that is always moving, especially in the early hours when the first loads of goods start arriving. My spot is just a regular shop in the middle of all that noise and activity. I’ve been working here for a long time, and I know almost everyone who walks past the door. The market life isn't for everyone since it’s crowded and loud, but I like the energy of it. My day starts with rolling up the shutters and making sure everything is where it should be. I don't have a team of people or a fancy office. It’s just me handling the daily business, talking to suppliers, and helping the folks who stop by. There’s always something that needs sorting or a customer who wants to chat for a bit. The shelves are usually packed tight because space is hard to come by around here. Sometimes it gets so busy that I don't even have time to sit down for a proper lunch. By the time evening rolls around, the market starts to quiet down a little, and that’s when I do my bookkeeping. It’s a simple way of living, but it’s honest and keeps me connected to the local community. If you’re ever near the market, you’ll see me there, just doing what I do every day.
