Ambuja Cement Limited

Living and working in Nalla Sopara is always an adventure because of how crowded it is. Our office in Samyak Apartment is small but it gets the job done. Being near the Olympic Hotel helps because everyone knows where that is. We spend a lot of time looking out the window at the chaos on Station Road while we wait for the phone to ring. Thane is a massive area to cover, so we are always busy with something. The apartment building itself is a bit old and the elevator works when it feels like it. Most of the time we just take the stairs to the second floor. It’s good exercise, I guess. We have a tiny kitchen area where we make our own coffee because the stuff from the shop downstairs is too sweet. We aren't a big fancy branch with glass walls and carpets. It’s just tiled floors and some sturdy desks. We handle all the paperwork for the cement deliveries across the western suburbs. It gets really loud during the monsoon with the rain hitting the windowpanes, but we just turn up the volume on the phone and keep going. We know the truck drivers well and they often stop by to complain about the traffic or the roads. It’s just a regular office life in a very busy part of Maharashtra. We keep a ledger for the keys and another one for the tea expenses. There is an old calendar on the wall from three years ago that nobody has bothered to take down.
