Shankar Rao C S

My office is at 67/1 Malleshwaram, right on the 14th Cross and East Park Road. If you know Malleshwaram, you know it has a very specific feel to it. It is one of those older parts of Bangalore where the trees are still big and provide good shade. Shankar Rao C S is the name on the door, though most people just know me by sight. Being on East Park Road is nice because the park is close by. I sometimes take a walk there during my lunch break just to get some fresh air. The office itself is an old-style building. The ceilings are high, which keeps it relatively cool even when it is hot outside. We have a lot of old wooden furniture that has been around for decades. It smells a bit like old paper and ink inside. There is a small window that looks out onto the street. I watch the flower sellers and the school kids walking past every day. The 14th Cross is a busy spot, but my corner feels a bit tucked away from the main rush. I don't use any fancy computers or gadgets if I can help it. I prefer doing things the old-fashioned way with a pen and a ledger. It has worked for me all these years, so I don't see any point in changing now. It is a quiet, steady life here in Malleshwaram.
