Megatronic Services

Our shop is at number 2/620 on Subiksha Avenue Third Street. If you’re coming from the bus stand in Kovilambakkam, it’s just a short walk over to where we are. Being near the bus stand is helpful because it makes it easy for people to drop things off on their way to work. Megatronic Services is mostly just a workbench, a lot of tools, and shelves full of parts that we might need someday. It looks a bit messy to anyone else, but we know exactly where everything is kept. We spend a lot of our time hunched over electronics, trying to figure out why they stopped working. Sometimes it's an easy fix and other times we have to stare at it for a couple of hours before we get anywhere. The light in the shop is okay, but we use those big magnifying lamps for the tricky bits. Kovilambakkam is getting busier every year, and Third Street has its fair share of noise, but it's a decent place to work. We don't really do much advertising; people usually just hear about us from their neighbors or see the sign when they're walking from the bus. We just try to do the job right and finish it on time so people can go about their day. It's a steady way to earn a living, even if our eyes get a bit tired by the evening. We keep the kettle going for tea and just take each repair as it comes, one after another, until the day is done.
