Christmas Gift Box

We are up on the first floor at Shop No. 9 in Sector 11D. It’s a bit of a climb up the stairs, but it’s quieter than being right on the ground floor. Our shop focuses on gift boxes, particularly the ones people use around the holidays. Even when it’s not December, we have plenty of boxes stacked up. The place smells a bit like cardboard and tape most of the time. We have all different sizes and colors piled up against the walls. Sometimes it feels like the boxes might fall over if you sneeze too hard. I usually spend my time folding boxes or sorting through the inventory. The light coming through the window is quite bright in the afternoon. We don’t have a big team, just a couple of us working here. Sector 11D is a decent area, and we’ve been in this building for a while now. Some days are very slow, and we just sit and talk or listen to the radio. Other days, when a big order comes in, we are moving around non-stop. We don't have a website or anything like that. People usually find us by word of mouth or by seeing the sign near the stairs. It’s a bit of a niche business, but it works for us. We just keep making sure we have enough stock for when the busy season hits. It’s simple work, but someone has to provide the boxes for all those presents. We close up around six most evenings to head home and relax.
