OLA CAB




10:35am, today morning, Chandhigarh station. I have booked OLA CAB, called driver, 

Me:- Hello ! 
Driver:- Good morning Sir ! Thanks for booking Ola. Where are you ? 
Me:- Good morning ! I am standing in front of Chandhigarh  Railway station. 
Driver:- Okay. I will be there in five minutes. 

I was surprised by the response of the driver. The ascent was really good and seemed to be very educated one. And when cab arrived and I saw the driver, I was more surprised. He was wearing really good branded formals. Good personality. And a positive smile on his face. I got in the cab and shook his hand. 
Me:- Hello ! 
Driver:- Hello ! Nice to see you Sir. 
I smiled back. 
Driver:- Where do you want to go sir ? 
I gave him the address. And asked him. 
Do you drive cab as a part time Job or its your Own Cab ? 
He smiled and said..
Driver:- Sir, its mine. Today my driver is on leave. So I am driving it because mine is also off. 
Me:- Ohh ! Okay. I thought so. Because you are really good. And I thought, are all Ola drivers are same in chandhigarh or my luck is that good. 
Driver:- Laughed and said its my good luck that I just started my day with you. 
Me:- Smiled. What do you do ? 
Driver:- I am Mechanical Engineer. Working in Mahindra Swaraj.  Do you know the company ? 
Me:- Yes, they make Tractors. 
Driver:- Yes Sir. What do you do Sir ? 
Me:- I am also engineer but I don't have the degree. 
Driver:- Means ? 
Me:- I do repair all types of cameras and lenses, and I am doing it from past 20 years so I am an Engineer by experience so  I don't  have the degree. 
We both laughed. 
Driver:- you don't look like that old. 
Me:- Smiled. Yeah. I don't look like that old and I have started working at the age of 13. 
Driver:- Ohh! That's great Sir. 
Me:- Brother don't call me Sir please. Main aapke age group KA he hoon.
Driver:- I am just 24. 
Me:- Took a long breath. I am just 34. 
We Both laughed and my destination had arrived. So I did alight there. Paid him. Shook his hand. Exchanged business cards. 
What a pleasant experience I had . Just made my day. Just suppose if we have that kind of experience daily in cabs. I am not saying for engineer drivers. But if a driver behave like a descent one. Than it would be really good.
