United Air Logistics

United Air Logistics operates out of an office at D 21 Mallappa Hill in Pavana Nagar, right inside the Rustomjee Chambers. We are not a giant corporation with thousands of employees. It is just a few of us sitting at desks piled high with shipping manifests and customs documents. Our days are mostly spent on the phone or checking the computer to see where a specific crate has ended up. We handle things that need to go by air, which usually means people are in a hurry. It can get pretty loud in the office when everyone is talking at once, trying to coordinate with the airport or the trucking guys. The building we are in has been around for a while, and everyone in the hallway knows each other. We don't have fancy marketing materials or a polished sales pitch. We just tell people the truth about how long a shipment will take and what it will cost. Sometimes the weather messes up the flights and we have to spend the whole evening rerouting things. It is a lot of staring at screens and double-checking numbers so nothing gets lost. We eat our lunch at our desks most days because the phones don't really stop ringing. It’s a busy life, but it’s what we’ve been doing for a long time now. We just try to keep the boxes moving and make sure the paperwork is done correctly.
