Mugeem Steel

At 8 New Guddadahalli inside the Panchvati Society area is where you will find us. Mugeem Steel is basically a place where we handle a lot of metal throughout the day. It’s a very physical job and you have to be careful with your hands because everything is heavy and sometimes sharp. The yard at Panchvati Society is often filled with the sound of steel clanging together as we move it from the trucks to the storage racks. New Guddadahalli is a tight neighborhood so we have to be mindful of how we park the big vehicles when they come in to drop off supplies. Most of our morning is spent looking at lists of what needs to go out and what is coming in. It is a lot of counting and checking the thickness of the metal sheets or the length of the rods. We don't have any air conditioning so in the summer it gets really hot inside the shed where we work. We just drink a lot of water and keep moving. It’s not the kind of place where you would want to wear nice clothes because you are going to get grease or rust on them by the end of the shift. We’ve been at this for a while and we just focus on keeping the steel moving and making sure we didn't miss any items on the order list. There is not much more to it than just doing the work.
