Build a good work record

An mature worker approached me at a job fair. He asked for my assistance to use my influence to get a certain taxi company to rent the Mercedes taxi for his use. Apparently, this type of taxi is in high demand.

I suggested the following approach:

* rent the ordinary taxi (which is easily available)
* produce a good work record over one or two years
* after that, approach the taxi company to allow him to rent the Mercedes taxi

I hope that people can make progress by building a good work record, rather than to approach people to use their influence.

Frankly, I do not have this type of influence. Even if I had, I will not use it inappropriately.
