Ibm

This spot in Hooghly, specifically over at Bally More on Kalitala Lane, is where we spend our days as Ibm. It’s a quiet enough street, though the rain makes it a bit muddy during the monsoon. We have the pin 712103 if you’re sending mail. It’s not a big corporate setup. Mostly just a few of us sitting around desks in a building that’s seen better days. We get the work done without much fuss. People around here know us as the ones who are always in by nine. There’s a tea shop just down the lane that we frequent. The office inside is simple. We have old fans that click while they spin. It gets hot in the summer, but we’re used to it. No one here wears suits or anything like that. We just wear what’s comfortable and focus on the screens. Being in West Bengal, things move at their own pace sometimes. We like it that way. It’s not about being the biggest, just about being here and doing the job. The walls are a pale yellow, or they used to be. Now they’re just sort of off-white. We have a lot of folders piled up. It looks a bit messy, but we know where everything is. It’s just how we operate. We don't need things to be perfect to get the job done. This is just our daily life here in Hooghly.
