A TAXI driver taught me a million dollar lesson in customer satisfaction and expectation. Inspiring speakers charge thousands of dollars to give his kind of training to corporate directors and staff.  It cost me only a ＄12 taxi ride.

I had flown into Dallas just for the purpose of calling on a client. Time was important and my plan included a quick turn – around trip from and back to the airport. A clean taxi pulled up.

The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door. As be got in the driver’s seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me for my use. 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 not believe the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, “Obviously you take great pride in you 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 find my right position in life, somewhere I could feel proud of being the 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 evaluated my personal property and, I became a taxi driver!

One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I jus have to meet the expectations of my passengers. But, to be GREAT in my business, I have to EXEED the customer’s expectations! I like the sound of being ‘great’ better than just being ‘average’. ”

Did I tip him big time? You bet!

US President Barack Obama made his first visit to China early this week, during which he sent out signals to China that the US sees China as its partner, not a rival.

During his Asian tour, Obama emphasized that the US isn't  looking to contain the rise of a strong, prosperous China.

“China-US relations are very important. Maintaining such ties  is the responsibility of both sides,” President Hu jintao told reporters after his meeting with Obama. Hu described the meeting as candid(坦诚的), constructive and fruitful, a “very good” talk.                 

The two leaders agreed that the key to China-US relations was  to respect each other's interests and major concerns, but that  national differences were normal.

A joint statement released after the meeting said it covered major issues, from nuclear proliferation to global warming to  financial crisis and trade protectionism. “China-US relations go beyond any single issue,” said Obama.

China holds a large amount of US government debt – over $800  billion (5.5 trillion yuan) in Treasury bonds. Just before  Obama's China visit, The New York Times described it as a trip  to “pay his respects to his banker”.

The US is the China's biggest export market, accounting for more  than 70 percent of China's exports. Total trade between the  two was worth $400 billion (2.7 trillion yuan), in 2008.

In addition to the financial interdependence, there are  educational exchanges to be considered. More than 11,000  Americans studied in China last year, for a 25 percent    increase over the previous year, according to the Institute of  International Education in the US. Meanwhile, Chinese students are the second largest group of  foreign students in the US, and their numbers are on the rise. Last year, 81,000 mainland students went to the US, a 20 percent increase from 2008. According to the joint statement issued on Tuesday, for the next four years, over 100,000 American students will be sent to the China for study.

Still, people in the two countries may have a long way to go in improving their opinions.

A The significance of Obama’s visit to China
