My first security scan

Up until this week I've not come across any security scanners. I used to travel a lot for work, pre-PM but since I've retired (just cause I could, nothing to do with PM) I've been able to avoid the hassles of airline travel.

Monday I had jury duty and when I went to the court building it looked like airport security. So being a bit rusty in the drill I put my bag in the tray and proceeded to walk through the scanner. BEEP. I told them I had a PM and that could be the cause, but forgot I didn't take the coins out of my pocket. So went back emptied pockets. The security guy held up a wand and asked if I wanted to do it that way, but I said no this was an experiment to see what if anything happens with my PM. He got a funny look on his face. Probably trying to remember his medical call numbers and training. LOL Any way I walked back through, no beeps, no problems. Security guard looked relieved.

So now I know that if I ever do fly anywhere again, I'll just truck on through the scanner.

Just thought I'd share this experience, especially for any newbies with anxious thoughts about their PM.
