The ICICI Bank branch here in Palam Vihar, Gurgaon is usually quite a lively place. We are located at B-1102, which is tucked into the neighborhood enough that we see the same faces every single week. It isn't like those massive corporate offices in the middle of Cyber City. Our space is more about the locals coming in to update their passbooks or talk about a loan they are thinking of taking. We have got our desks set up and the security guard usually knows everyone who walks in by name. On Mondays, things get a bit hectic with the queues, and sometimes the printer acts up right when someone needs a statement, which is always frustrating. We try to keep things organized but a bank always has so much paperwork flying around. The staff here mostly lives nearby, so we talk about the local traffic or the power cuts in Palam Vihar while we work. It’s a job that requires a lot of sitting and looking at screens, but the interactions with the residents make it feel more like a community spot. We handle the cash, check the documents, and try to help people figure out their banking without making it too complicated. It’s just a regular bank branch doing its thing in Gurgaon-17, making sure the accounts are right and the doors open on time every morning.
