We’ve been at Fern Mansion on Hill Road for a while now. Bandra West is always changing, but this corner feels pretty much the same most days. There is a lot of traffic noise from the street that leaks inside, but we don't notice it much anymore. The building itself is old, so we have to be careful with how we move things around. Our day usually starts with checking what arrived in the morning and getting it onto the shelves. Hill Road gets really packed in the evenings, so we try to get the heavy work done before then. Sometimes the rain comes down hard and we have to move everything away from the front door quickly. We have a small staff and we mostly just talk about what happened the night before while we work. The lights flicker sometimes when it’s stormy. We keep a few stools behind the counter but they’re mostly covered in papers and notebooks. It’s a bit cluttered if you look closely, but we know where everything is. People come in looking for specific things, and we usually know exactly which box it’s in. It’s just a regular shop life, really. We spend a lot of time just making sure the place is tidy enough for the neighbors when they drop in. We don't have a big staff, just enough to keep the doors open and the stock moving for the people of 116 Fern Mansion.
