Junior Engineer Designs

Our office is tucked away right by the District Consumer Forum near the court premises in Visakhapatnam. You can hear the lawyers and people talking all day because it’s a very busy part of town. Working as a junior engineer on designs here means there is always a bit of noise from the street and the courts. I spend most of my time hunched over a desk working on drawings and checking the prints. The humidity in Vizag can be a bit much sometimes, so we usually have the fan going full blast. Since we are so close to the courts, we see all kinds of people walking past the windows every hour. It’s not the quietest place to work, but you get used to it after a week or two. I mostly handle the initial sketches and make sure the measurements are what they need to be. There are piles of blueprints and old files everywhere because we don’t throw much away. I usually bring my lunch from home and eat it while looking at the court gardens across the way. It’s a steady job and there’s always something new to draw up. We don't really do anything flashy here. It’s just a lot of drafting and making sure the lines are straight on every design. Sometimes I have to go over to the main court buildings for things, but mostly I am right here in the office with the files.
