R. P. Engineers (Attack Fire)

Our office and workshop are located at No. 116/6, which is right opposite the Sector 13 Police Station. It makes it easy to tell people where we are since everyone knows the station. At R. P. Engineers, or Attack Fire as the sign says, we spend most of our time dealing with fire safety equipment. The place is usually full of heavy red cylinders, rolls of hoses, and various brass fittings. It’s a bit of a maze sometimes when a new shipment comes in and we haven’t found a place for everything yet. The staff is just a handful of us who know the technical side of things. We spend a lot of time checking valves and making sure the pressure gauges are working right. It’s the kind of work where you can’t really afford to be lazy. We don’t have a big corporate office with air conditioning in every room. Usually, the front door is open to let a breeze in, even if it brings in some dust from the street. We talk to a lot of building managers and factory owners who need their gear checked. Most of the day is spent on the phone or out at a site, but the workshop is our main base. We’ve been in this spot for years and the locals know us well. We just keep doing our thing, one fire extinguisher at a time, without any big fuss or complicated processes.
