Mahalaxmi Engineering

Working in the Industrial Area at Plot No.44, Ward No-6, you get used to the noise pretty fast. Mahalaxmi Engineering is basically a workshop where we deal with all sorts of mechanical stuff. There is always the sound of metal hitting metal or some machine humming in the background. We started out small and just stayed in this ward because it’s where all the action is. The floor is usually a bit oily, and there are tools scattered around on the workbenches, but we know where everything is. It’s not the kind of place where you’d wear a nice suit. We are usually in our work clothes, covered in a bit of grease by noon. People bring us things to fix or ask us to make parts that they can't find elsewhere. We take our time to get the measurements right because if it’s off by a little, it won't work properly. The afternoon sun hits the front of the shop pretty hard, so we usually keep the big shutters half-open to get a breeze through. It’s a practical life, working with your hands and seeing something get finished by the end of the shift. We don't have a fancy reception area or a coffee machine. If someone comes by, they usually just walk right into the shop and find one of us. It’s been our routine for years now, and we like it that way. No complaints from us.
