Out here in Piplod, specifically at the Sindhi Commercial Market, things feel a bit more organized than the older parts of town. We set up Phone Funda Centre to be a place where anyone can walk in and get their mobile issues sorted without much fuss. We have a lot of different accessories like earphones and data cables scattered around. The market gets quite busy on the weekends with people out shopping, so we usually have a few customers waiting to get their screen guards applied. It’s a bit of a delicate job to get the bubbles out, but we do it so many times a day that it feels like second nature now. The shop is small and we’ve filled every inch of the wall space with stock. We don't use any fancy systems to keep track of things; we just know where everything is. Sometimes the power goes out for a bit and we just sit by the door where there’s some light from the street. It gives us a chance to talk to the shopkeepers next door. Most of our customers are locals who live in the nearby apartments. They come in because their charging port is acting up or they need a new memory card. We just do the work, give them their phone back, and hope they don't drop it again too soon. It's a busy corner of the market.
