I can confirm that this is true.
As a reservation agent for a company that serves 900 taxi companies across the U.S., I get a good dose of who’s who and what’s what. Of course, I am able to discern the nationality of those who are immigrant or first generation just by being on the phone with them a few minutes.
This trend does not bother me too much. These folks are educated (I’m including my many Indian passengers in the area on this), very polite, albeit a bit formal. They all seem to have good jobs as professionals. We never have problems with them, ever.
I am hoping that the local GOP is engaging with this new population.
I misspoke. I meant to say 900 cities across the US, not 900 cab companies. I apologize.
Must be time for me to go to bed!
