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.
