Sigma Minerals Ltd.

Sigma Minerals Ltd. is situated at 4, Heavy Industrial Area. As the name suggests, it is not exactly a quiet or suburban street. We are surrounded by other big plants, workshops, and warehouses. The ground around here is mostly dirt and gravel, and there is always a fine layer of dust on everything, including the office windows and the cars. We have a fairly large yard where the heavy trucks come in to load and unload the materials. The office part is just a small brick building on the side of the main site. It has got a few desks, a whiteboard that is getting hard to erase, and a very old filing system. We spend most of our time coordinating shipments and checking the quality of what is coming in. It gets very hot out here during the summer months, and the tin roofs on the sheds do not help much. We have a small cooler for water which is definitely the most popular spot in the building when it's warm. There is a lot of noise from the nearby factories, so we have to talk loudly sometimes to be heard over the machinery. It is a no-nonsense kind of place. We do not have fancy coffee machines or lounge areas for resting. People come here to work, and that is what we do. The shifts are long, and the work is physical for the guys out in the yard.
