It was a Friday morning, 7:30a.m. I felt too lazy to drive my car so I asked my son to book a taxi. In five minutes, the taxi reached the entrance gate, waiting for my arrival. I just saw the car number and entered inside the car. I was so busy that I didn’t pay any attention to the driver. I was searching for an important paper from my bag, so I said, ＂Please, go quick! I’m in a hurry!＂ The voice came, ＂Yes, Ma’ am!＂ I was surprised when I heard a female voice! I stopped my work for a second and looked at the drive. The driver was a young lady. Maybe, around thirty or thirty-two! For the first time, I saw a lady driving a taxi!

Hundred times, I had traveled in a taxi, but I never saw any lady driving a taxi, I didn’t know why I became so enthusiastic about knowing why she had chosen this profession. So I started the conversation, ＂If you don’t mind, can I ask you some questions?＂＂Yes, ma’am! No problem.＂＂I guess, you are well qualified!＂＂Yes, ma’am. I have completed my education.
