Hindalco Indutries - Indo Gulf Corp Ltd

Our office is at 318 Station Road, which is a very busy part of the city. Since we are so close to the railway station, the sound of train whistles and the constant hum of traffic is always in the background. It is an old building and the stairs are a bit narrow, but once you are inside, it’s a standard workspace. We have desks piled with files and the telephones seem to ring at the most inconvenient times. I spend most of my day sitting at my desk, talking to people on the phone or typing out reports. It’s an office environment but without the fancy glass walls you see in the new parts of town. We have a small pantry where we make tea and eat our lunch together. The windows look out onto the street where you can see the tea stalls and the rickshaw pullers waiting for passengers. It’s a fast-paced place because things are always moving in our industry. Sometimes the power goes out for a few minutes and we all just wait and chat until the generator kicks in. We have a lot of people coming in for meetings, so there is always a bit of a bustle around the entrance. It is just a functional office where we get through our tasks and try to keep up with the daily demands of the work. Sometimes I take a walk down to the platform just to clear my head.
