On the way in from the airport, I struck up a conversation with my taxi driver. Tony was from India. He had studied to be a marine biologist but could not get a decent job in that field here.

Tony loved to chat with his customers, yet he didnt want to bother them. I urged him to give it a try. And he did. Not only did his customers ask that he take them to the airport at the end of their trip, they also recommended him to their friends. Soon he had a long list of regulars and was able to buy his own Town Car, then a second.
