Jupiter Tea Marketing Associates

Jupiter Tea Marketing Associates sits on G.P. Road in Dullabcherra. This part of town is pretty quiet compared to the big cities. We handle a lot of tea through here. It arrives from the gardens and we move it along. The office is just a couple of rooms. We have some wooden chairs that have been here forever. It’s a bit cramped when the shipments come in. Boxes get stacked up to the ceiling. We have to move sideways to get to the back desk. The phone rings a lot. Usually, it's someone asking about prices or delivery times. We don't have a website or anything like that. Just the landline. Dullabcherra is a small place, so word gets around. My cousin works the morning shift and I take the afternoons. We make sure the accounts are right. Mistakes happen sometimes, but we fix them. The tea scent is everywhere. It sticks to your clothes. My wife says she can tell I’m home before I even open the front door. We keep the floor swept, though it’s hard with all the traffic. G.P. Road is narrow, so trucks have a tough time turning. We have to help guide them in. Dullabcherra gets very foggy in the mornings. You can barely see the road. We wait for the sun to come out before we start moving the heavy stuff. It's safer that way. It's just a regular life here.
