Mahesh Enginnering Works

Started at Allied Corporation in Ghatkopar West a while back. The shed isn't the biggest, but it works for what we do. Usually, the morning starts with the sound of the shutters going up on Kanakapura Main Road. It’s a dusty place because of all the metal work. Sometimes the machines act up when it’s too hot in the afternoon. We spend most of our time at the unit just making sure parts are ready. It’s not fancy here. There’s grease on the floor and the walls could use a new coat of paint, but we’re used to it. Most of the guys here have been working together for years. We know where every tool is kept even if it looks like a mess to someone else. When the power goes out, we just sit outside and wait for it to come back. Ghatkopar gets really busy during the evening, so we try to finish up before the traffic gets too bad. We aren’t doing anything revolutionary, just everyday engineering work that needs to get done. The shed is tucked away a bit, so people sometimes miss us the first time they come by. It gets quite noisy when the grinders are running, so you have to shout to be heard. Most of us just bring lunch from home and eat in the corner. That’s how it goes here every single day and we don't plan on changing much.
