He says that he used to talk more on the phone but after the mobile phones, he makes an observation that the people do everything with the celphones but they don't really use them to talk on very much.

Georgie almost hates speaking on the phone only with the family and friends but she prefers to arrange for a call. She prefers to talk on a text message because if someone calls her takes all her attention "But I think that's a millennial thing".

They like to have conversations on apps that they can send emojis, make chat groups, drop and pick up the conversation over many hours.

Summary

Neil, on the other hand, says he doesn't watch TikTok videos because he's too old for it, and he thinks that he's using the social media too much. They both use it for the same reason: to stay connected with friends. Georgie comments about the dificulty of reducing screen time and hopes to eventually set a limit, but she continues using in the same way, and Neil advises her to take a break.

Neil had a similar dream: he wanted to be a professional sportsperson, a footballer or a cricketer, but realized he wasn't good enough. So he wanted to be a rock star. After graduating from university, he decided to become an English teacher. He wanted to travel more than anything and live as a foreigner in other countries, and he thought that would be the best path: being an English teacher.
