Saraswati Roadlines

Our office, Saraswati Roadlines, is situated at B-130 in Chitrakut Nagar, right along the Bhuwana Bypass Road. Being out here on the bypass is much better for the trucks because they don't have to navigate the tight streets of the inner city. We’ve got a bit more space here, though the dust from the highway is always blowing into the office. I spend a lot of time swept up in paperwork, trying to keep track of where every truck is. We mostly do long-haul routes. It’s a tough way to make a living, especially when the weather is bad or the roads are under construction. My wife helps me with the accounts in the evenings, and we usually have a few drivers hanging around the yard waiting for their next assignment. We have an old radio that we keep on most of the day just to have some background noise. We aren't a big corporation with hundreds of employees. It’s just us and a handful of reliable drivers we’ve known for years. We don't have a fancy mission statement or anything like that. We just try to make sure that whatever we’re carrying gets to the other end in one piece. If a customer is happy, they come back, and that’s how we’ve stayed in business all this time. It’s basic, honest work that keeps us going from one day to the next.
