Continental Engineering Corporation

Down here in Kerala, at Vappangattu House, we run Continental Engineering Corporation. It is located in the P.O Kaladi area of Malappuram. The building is an older style house that we’ve used for work for quite some time now. You’ll find us surrounded by greenery, which is nice when the weather is good, though the monsoon rains can make the commute a bit of a challenge. We mostly focus on the technical side of things here, keeping our records organized and making sure the engineering tasks are moving forward. It’s not like those big glass offices you see in the city. We have a couple of desks, a few computers that have seen better days, and plenty of files stacked up. We know the neighbors, and they know us. Most of the staff comes from nearby villages, so there is a very local feel to how we operate. We start early in the morning before it gets too humid. There is always tea around 11, which is when we catch up on what everyone is doing. We don’t really do big meetings, just quick chats over the desk. Working from Malappuram means things move at a certain pace, and we’re fine with that. We just focus on the drawings and the numbers until it’s time to go home. It’s a simple setup but it works for what we need to do for the projects we handle.
