Travelling with a Professional Driver


June 13 2011

I woke up, realizing I have a morning ten am meeting with Japan’s new manager for introduction. I got ready on time and called a cab to fetch me to office. By the time I reached down stairs to my surprise the cab driver, already arrived and awaiting my at the void deck on my apartment block. I approached towards the taxi and he some how new from a distance that I am the one to board his taxi. He auto opened the door for me.

I sat in the taxi and he said welcome Mr. Singh where would you like to go today. I told him to bring me to the office location. He knew the best route to the location. The cab was already having nice 23-24 degrees temperature compare to outside 29 degrees. As we started our journey I could see him really well worse and professional in his job. He knew where to slow and where to be full speed.

Generally it takes up to 30 minutes+ to reach office. He could bring me to office in 20+ minutes. The cabby was really well behaved, professional. Along the way he got a call from someone, he picked it up and started talking but his eyes were still on road all the time.

When arriving at the destination, as per normal I made the payment and thanked him for bringing me safely to office as well as wished him a good day ahead. He wished the same in return and moved on to his next pickup.
