A Look Inside The Vehicle While It Is Hired
Arrangements have been made, the date and time has arrived, the driver was on time, everyone is on board on the way to the scheduled destination.
What is happening? How is it happening? What is the context of those which are happening?
Let’s have a look inside the vehicle while being hired to have a better understanding of the rapport between the interacting parties.
People inside the vehicle
First let’s have a look at the people being present in the vehicle while hired. Human behavior is nothing but predictable. If one thinks that can understand and determine with a great amount of accuracy someone’s behavior without the knowledge of all the factors, and considering the circumstances which are determining that particular behavior, then it would be better to think again and to contemplate about it.
At any given moment, the behavior is being governed by several factors, internal or external to the considered person. These factors could be mental, emotional, physiological or physical of their nature. Only a complete consideration and understanding of all these factors would lead to a thorough, complete determination of that behavior.
At the time of the travel in the vehicle, when it is moving, besides the need to be focused and concentrated on the road, the driver is attentive to the passenger’s requests and considerations, whether informational or just conversational. This requires more mental energy and skill from the driver. For this very reason it is necessary to allow enough distance for the driving to be performed, and if situation allows, communication between the driver and the passengers can take place.
Different people would be engaged into an interaction; part of a different race, of different gender, age, belief, upbringing, social status, level of income or intelligence. Important to consider that no difference should create tension or disagreements between the driver and the passenger. We are told that the customer is always right. It could be true or not exactly so. One thing is certain, the customer always has the right to be considered, heard, understood, demand contractual commitments to be fulfilled for which payment has been retained.
Scope of the transportation service
A safe and comfortable passenger’s commute from one location to another constitutes the main scope of the passenger ground transportation service. Being common for both, drivers and passengers have slightly different considerations on their minds while being in the same vehicle.
The passenger at times just needs a quick ride, at times needs a comfortable and relaxing transportation, at times needs a faster than ordinary driving, at times needs information or emotional support. The driver being sensible and trying to accommodate passenger’s needs, more often than not, expresses understanding and compassionate behavior. Acting in the best interests of their passengers, drivers are exercising the contractual commitments, but sometimes the expectations are not met which causes unsatisfaction and a misunderstood perception of the service. It is necessary to mention that main focus is a safe, efficient and comfortable transportation, personal rapport being of secondary importance.
Different people hold different points of view
A conversation more often than not would produce different points of view over the same subject. Different opinions, individual or subjective points of view, at times, end up being conflicting, particularly when personal interests are at stake and each person is trying to defend their point of view. Worth mentioning is the fact that the main scope of the interaction is the transportation, talk falling secondary. It works best when kept at bay, on the low side, not crossing personal border-lines, as each person is concerned of not being wrong, and protective of their beliefs and perceptions.
A mutually pleasant conversation; based on the publicly disclosed, socially acceptable topics; would create a positive atmosphere; make the driver to have a better focus on the driving; generate a better feel of the moment; give the necessary encouragement to both driver and passenger; result in a more satisfactory experience for the passenger.
Cultural influences
Contemporary world is a multicultural interconnected community, where people migrate from one place to another often and in large numbers. This brings together people of different cultural backgrounds and upbringings. It is inevitable to come across off different views, beliefs, languages. Which makes the choice of used words very important, as oftentimes the intended message to be delivered is different than the one received.
It is not particularly necessary to know much information about a certain culture , or to know the language and traditions. It is more important to be aware of the possible discrepancies and misunderstandings, which might cause an offence or send a disrespectful message. Social acceptance is based on the inherited beliefs and actively practiced behaviors. Being aware that there are intercultural differences would engage participants into a more efficient interaction leading to a favorable outcome.
Conclusion
Fulfilling transportation necessity and using Sedan Service inevitably requires person to person interaction. A positive, constructive rapport is not only pleasant; it is more satisfactory for both parties involved in the process. When properly informed, well understood and acted responsibly, the interaction fulfills the transportation need, generates a positive outcome, emanates good energy and stimulates both parties to render to their personal activities better than prior to their interaction.
An accumulation of short, fleeting experiences, life directly depends on them and is influenced by the quality of each of these moments. Knowing the most important differences, helps one act according to the needs of the situation and improves the general experience of life.
