We are located up on the third floor of the building on Cawasji Patel Street. It’s right near the High Court area on the Pune Solapur Road. The office isn't very big, just enough space for a few desks and some chairs for when people come by. We spend most of our mornings dealing with paperwork and answering the phone. It gets a little hot in the afternoons, so we keep the fans running all the time. Sometimes the traffic noise from the road downstairs makes it hard to hear, but we have gotten used to it over the years. We’ve been here for quite a while now, and the neighbors in the other offices know us pretty well. There is no elevator, or at least it doesn’t work half the time, so we get plenty of exercise walking up to the third floor every day. We keep our files in these old metal cabinets that probably need a new coat of paint. It’s a simple setup, really. We don't have any fancy decorations or a big lobby. Usually, there is some tea being made in the corner and a stack of papers waiting to be sorted. People find us because they know the address or someone told them where we are. We just focus on getting through the daily list of things to do. It is an honest way to spend the day, just working through the tasks until it's time to lock up and head home.
