In most cases, when we travel independently, we simply can not do without taxi services. It's very simple to get confused in a big unfamiliar city, especially without an excellent knowledge of a foreign language. Remember, for example, your first visit to the capital of our homeland. Even taking into account the fact that for us the Russian language is native, without Taxi-economist of Moscow, most visitors would have to be tight.
And now we will complicate the situation a little. Imagine that the plane brought you to Heathrow (London) or to John F. Kennedy Airport, located in the southeastern part of New York. It's easy to get confused with a newcomer in these megalopolises. Taxi is the mechanism that allows you to deliver hundreds of tourists to the final point of their route.
Those who just recently started to master the travel industry should know a little more about this type of transport in foreign countries, like taxis .The Moscow Taxi Service has only recently begun to undergo certain reforms and positive changes .In the UK and the US, there are certain traditions of this type of transportation .People who "turn the steering wheel there," know their business perfectly, know their city and all the suburbs perfectly .All that is necessary to remember the customer of this service is the name of the hotel, bar or shop where you need to arrive .
The salary of a taxi driver in London is quite high, quite comparable to the salary of an average employee. People value their place very much. For them, the motto "The client is always right" is not just sonorous words, but a specific instruction for action. In order to deliver customers, it is not enough just to have a driver's license. A pretender for a prestigious job must first pass a difficult exam for a thorough knowledge of the city.
The examiner must demonstrate the art of finding the shortest way, an excellent memory (it is necessary to know by heart the names of a lot of shops, clubs, hotels, restaurants, etc.) Many of the drivers can not stand the serious test the first time. Passing the exam is postponed for a long time.
What gives such an attitude to the profession for foreign guests of the country? Highest quality of service. All cars are equipped with counters, so do not be afraid that after the next trip there will not be anything to fly back.
American taxi drivers also value their work very much. They know that if a customer lodges a complaint with their union and the driver's fault is proven, the way to the taxi will be closed for good by the negligent driver.
