A cab driver taught me a million dollar lesson in customer
satisfaction andexpectation. Motivationalspeakers charge thousands of
dollars to impart his kind of training to corporate executives and
staff. It cost me a $12 taxi ride.
I had flown into Dallas for the sole purpose of calling on a client.
Time was of the essence and my plan included a quick turnaround trip
from andback to the airport. A spotless cab pulled up.
The driver rushed to open the passenger doorfor me and made sure I was
comfortably seated before he closed the door. As he got in the
driver's seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal
next to me for myuse. He then showed me several tapes and asked me
what type of music I would enjoy.
Well! I looked around for a "Candid Camera!" Wouldn't you? I could
notbelieve the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to
say,"Obviously you take great pride in your work.You must have a story
to tell."
"You bet," he replied, "I used to be in Corporate America. But I got
tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to
findmy niche in life where I could feel proud of beingthe best I could
be.
I knew I would never be a rocket scientist, but I love driving cars,
being of service and feeling like I have done a full day's work and
done it well. I evaluate my personal assets and... wham! I became a
cab driver.
One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I could simply
just meet the expectations of my passengers. But, to be GREAT in my
business , I have to EXCEED the customer's expectations! I like both
the sound and the return of being 'great' better than just getting by
on 'average'"
Did I tip him big time? You bet! Corporate America's loss is the
traveling folk's friend!

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
