Nitin Auto Work

Nitin Auto Work is in Ghorpade Peth on Productivity Road, specifically at 671/673. This is where we spend most of our waking hours, covered in oil and grease. It’s an auto shop, so there are always engines being taken apart or tires being changed. The floor is never really clean, no matter how much we sweep it, but that’s just the nature of the work. We deal with all sorts of vehicles that come through the door. Some need a simple oil change while others have problems that take a few days to figure out. Productivity Road is a busy place, and we get a lot of noise from the street, but you get used to it after a while. We aren't the kind of place with a fancy waiting room or free coffee. Most people just stand around and talk while we look under the hood. Things are told like they are—if a part is broken, it gets replaced. If it can be saved, we fix it. It’s about getting people back on the road so they can get to work. We have been in Ghorpade Peth for a long time, and we know the neighborhood well. It’s hard work on the back and hands, but there is something good about hearing an engine start up smoothly after it’s been acting up for weeks.
