Kalpana Sawla

I work out of a space on the Pune-Satara Road, specifically in J-1 over at the 11th A Main in the 4th Block. It’s a pretty busy part of the city. The traffic on the main road is almost always backed up with cars and buses, so I try to get in early before the noise starts. Kalpana Sawla is just the name on the door of the office. It’s a quiet space compared to the chaos outside. I’ve lived and worked around this area for many years. You get to know the shopkeepers and the people who sell fruit on the corner every morning. The building is decent, nothing special, but it has good light in the mornings which helps. I spend most of my time at the desk going through records and answering the phone. It’s not a huge company with layers of management and bosses. It’s just me and a little bit of help when things get too busy. We keep things very basic and simple. There’s a small tea shop down the street where I usually go for a quick break in the afternoon. The 4th Block has changed a lot lately with new buildings going up, but our little corner stays mostly the same. I don't use a lot of fancy software or expensive gadgets. Just a computer and some notebooks to keep track of things. It’s a steady rhythm that really suits me.
