Procter&Gamble Baddi

I work over at the Procter&Gamble spot in Baddi. It is a big name that everyone recognizes, but on the ground, it is just a lot of people in uniforms doing their daily shifts. My paperwork or the mail often goes through the Shimla office, address 172001, which is quite a trek from the actual plant where the machines are. Himachal Pradesh is where we are all based. The Baddi area is full of factories just like ours. It gets very dusty and loud with all the big trucks moving in and out of the gates. Inside, we are just focusing on the production lines and making sure everything is moving the way it should. It is a lot of routine work. You come in, do your hours, and go home to your family. We do not really think about the big company stuff very much. For us, it is more about the people we work next to every day. We eat our lunch together and complain about how hot it gets in the summer. Being associated with a place like Shimla sounds a bit fancy to outsiders, but Baddi is where the real grit and work happen. It is an industrial landscape through and through. The 172001 zip code is just a part of the address on the envelopes we receive. We have been part of this area for a while now. It is steady work and we keep the machines running.
