Modern Security Force

If you come looking for Modern Security Force, you have to go up to the 6th Floor of the Atlanta Center. It’s on Sonawala Lane, right near Udyog Bhavan. The lift is sometimes slow, so you might end up waiting a bit in the lobby with the delivery drivers. Up here, it’s mostly phones ringing and people checking schedules on clipboards. We manage a lot of guards who are out at different sites across the city. It’s a lot of logistical work, making sure someone is always on duty and that they actually showed up for their shift. Sometimes a guy gets sick and we have to scramble to find a replacement at the last minute. The office is usually a bit of a mess with logbooks and uniform orders piled up on the side tables. We drink a lot of water because it gets stuffy on the higher floors when the sun hits the windows in the afternoon. Looking out, you can see the roofs of the buildings around Udyog Bhavan. Sonawala Lane is always packed with people and delivery vans, so it’s never quiet. We aren't doing anything fancy here, just making sure the gates are manned and the properties we look after stay quiet at night. It’s about keeping track of people and being ready for when something goes wrong. We stay pretty focused on the daily rosters and the radio calls coming in from the field staff.
