is Upgrade episode 274 on today's show is brought to you by Squarespace, Fresh Books and Text Expander from Smile. My name is Mike

Curley and I'm joined by Jason Snell. Hello Jason Snell.

Hello Mike Curley. How are you? I'm very well my friend. Happy

Thanksgiving. I hope you had a happy one. Oh thank you. Yes it was delightful.

You know good having a four day weekend. Love it. How is Thanksgiving Thanksgiving in England it's great because I get

special time off because everyone I work with is not working so that's lovely for me

well nobody wants to hear about that nobody especially wants to hear about what Thanksgiving is like in England.

So let's go to our hashtag snow talk question. It comes from Joel. Joel wants to know, do you let someone

touch or take your phone when scanning a ticket boarding pass or coupon?

My precious, you cannot have my precious.

Yeah, you know what, I prefer to just scan it myself like I go to the airport and I get to the security and I just lay it down on the little scanner and I hold it out and have it kind of like

at the when I'm boarding the plane. I prefer to do that myself if they want to take the

phone and scan it because I'm not getting the angle right or whatever I'm fine with it it's fine I don't

care I don't have some weird like oh touch touch not to my iPhone I don't care

my thing with this is my typical thing like in in airports which is in airports you you lose all of your ability to do anything, right?

Like you lose your dignity, your individualism

because you want to get on the plane

and airport situations are such that it feels like at any moment someone could

deny you to get on the plane so if somebody reaches their hand out to take my

phone my phone goes into their hand like it's thank. Thank you sir may I have another.

Yep. I don't want to give them my phone but I feel like I have to because I don't want to be seen as causing trouble.
