Meghalaya Cements Ltd,Jaintia Hills Meghalaya

We are located out here in Thangskai, which is a small village area near Lumshnong in the Jaintia Hills. It is a very green part of Meghalaya, and it rains quite a lot during the monsoon season. Our work here at the cement plant involves a lot of dusty days and heavy trucks moving in and out of the gates. Most of us who work here are used to the winding roads of the hills and the damp weather that stays for months. We just get on with our jobs every day. There is no big fancy city life around us, just the local community and the hills. People in Jowai know where we are because we have been in this spot for a while now. The office is often busy with paperwork and people coming in to check on shipments. We keep a kettle going for tea when it gets cold outside, which happens quite often in this part of the country. It is a practical kind of life, focused on making sure the bags get loaded and the machinery keeps running. Sometimes the electricity goes out when the storms are bad, but we just wait it out and start back up again. It is not always easy working in a remote spot like this, but we have our routine down. We are just a local bunch trying to do our part in the cement business. We see the same faces every morning and that makes it a decent place to be.
