Utpal Baishya

My name is Utpal Baishya and I run things from here in Vill: Jatia. We are located near the Sachibalya post office. It’s a quiet spot most of the time. This is where I grew up and where I decided to stay and work. The village has its own pace and we try to stick to that. It’s nothing like the big city offices you see on TV. We have a small space and we do what we can with it. Sometimes the neighbors stop by to chat while we’re working. It’s that kind of place. The mail comes through the Sachibalya office which is just down the way. I spend most of my mornings getting everything organized for the day. It gets a bit dusty in the summer and muddy when it rains, but we manage. People know where to find me if they need something. I don't really do much advertising. News just travels by word of mouth around here. That works fine for us. We’ve been at this for a long time. It’s just me and a couple of helpers when things get busy. We don't use any big fancy machines. Mostly it’s just hand work and keeping an eye on things. It’s a simple way of making a living in Jatia. We’re just regular people trying to do a decent job every day.
