Usha Martine

If you are looking for Usha Martine, we are over on Babai Road in Jamshedpur. The building number is 30/Rn1. It’s right in the 831001 zip code area, so we are pretty much in the thick of things. Babai Road can get quite congested with rickshaws and motorbikes, so there is always a bit of noise coming through the windows. We’ve grown used to it over the years, though. It’s just the sound of the city moving. The office itself is nothing special to look at. It’s a practical space where we keep our records and handle the daily grind. We don't have any of those modern open-plan layouts you see in magazines. It’s just rooms with desks and chairs and plenty of paper everywhere. Sometimes the tea runs out or the printer jams, and someone has to run out to get supplies. That’s just life here. We aren't trying to be anything we aren't. We are just a local branch doing what we do in Jharkhand. Most of us have lived in Jamshedpur our whole lives, so we know the shortcuts to avoid the traffic on the way in. It’s a tough, hardworking town, and we try to match that energy in our own quiet way. We don't have a mission statement on the wall, just a calendar and maybe a few old photos. It’s just where we work and we’re okay with that. It's a simple, honest setup.
