Glory
If you're hoping to find glory in a life of taking tolls, it's probably best if you have the type of mind that happens to wander to glorious places while you do so. The truth is there's not much to achieve outside of your own head when you can't leave a booth in the middle of the expressway. If you get caught, say, trying to tightrope walk above the highway just to have a reputation as the crazy person who did that, you'll probably just be fired.
For toll takers, there's not even the usual helping-people-with-necessary-things kind of glory you'd get as a babysitter, or a TV repair man, for example. At best, a toll booth is a routine inconvenience for commuters. Even if you provide service with a smile, it's hard to imagine anyone really appreciating it.
Being the best toll taker in the world means that you never fail to take the toll quickly and keep the flow of traffic moving. That means no chatting, so while you may feel that you're the one keeping spirits high from mile 333 to mile 364 on the interstate, you'll have to keep it to yourself.
