Sri Chidambaram & Co.

Down here at 218 Angappa Nakken Street, it’s always a bit of a scramble to get things done. Sri Chidambaram & Co. has been part of this street’s landscape for quite a while now. The street is narrow and always packed with people and carts, so just getting into the office can be an adventure some mornings. We do a lot of paperwork and coordination for the goods coming through. It isn’t the kind of job where you wear a suit; it’s more about rolled-up sleeves and getting your hands a bit dusty. We’ve got stacks of files that go back years, and the walls could probably use a fresh coat of paint, but we’re usually too busy to worry about that. Most of our day is spent talking to different people and making sure everything is lined up for the next day. It’s a lot of back-and-forth, and sometimes it gets a bit stressful when things don't go according to plan. That's just part of being on this side of the city. We don't have any big speeches about what we do. We just show up, handle the business at hand, and go home. The neighbors are mostly other businesses like ours, so we all kind of understand the daily grind. It’s a noisy, busy place to work, but it feels right for what we do. We just keep our heads down and keep the business running as best as we can.
