Hsbc Bank

Over at S/71 in Greater Kailash-1, we are just a regular part of the neighborhood. This Hsbc Bank location in New Delhi has been around for a bit, and we see the same faces coming in quite often. It isn’t one of those massive corporate towers; it feels more like a local fixture in GK-1. We open up in the morning, get the lights on, and wait for the first few people to walk through the door. Usually, it's folks from the nearby houses or shop owners from around the corner. We spend a lot of time sitting at these desks, dealing with numbers and forms. The air conditioning is a bit loud sometimes, but you get used to it. We don't really do the big speeches or the fancy talk here. We just help people with their accounts and try to get the lines moving as fast as we can. India can be a busy place, and this part of Delhi is no exception. There is always a lot of honking outside on the main road. Inside, we just focus on the computer screens. We have our small routines, like where we grab our afternoon chai. It’s a steady job in a nice part of town. Most of us have lived in the city our whole lives. We just do the work that needs doing every single day. No one is trying to be a hero, we just want to get through the pile of paperwork before the day ends.
