Spinorim

Our address is No-33/1/A on Bihari Lal Ghosh Road. Being in Belgharia, we are right in the thick of things. The road is usually busy with people heading toward the station or the market. Our building has been here for quite some time. The walls have that old character you only get from years of being in a place like this. We have a small sign out front, but most people just know us by the building color. Inside, it’s a lot of paperwork and people talking. We don’t have those modern open-plan offices you see in magazines. It’s more of a collection of rooms that we’ve adapted over the years. Some of the windows don’t open all the way, but they let in enough light. The floor is that old-style stone that stays cool even when it’s humid outside. We spend a lot of our time on the phone or sitting at the big wooden tables we’ve had since we started. There is a lot of history on this road, and we feel like a small part of it. When the rains come, the sound on the roof is so loud we have to shout a bit to be heard. We usually stop for a tea break when the local delivery man comes by. It’s a steady life. We aren't trying to change the world; we’re just making sure our corner of Belgharia keeps running smoothly. Every now and then, the power goes out, and we just sit and wait it out with a chat.
