Watch out for the lanyard police! :uzi:
I was at the gate non-revving to work this morning and I had a passenger in line next to me look me up & down with a sort of dirty look, then lean in close and ask:
(PAX) "They let you wear that to work?"
(ME) "Uhm, let me wear WHAT to work?"
(PAX) "that neckstrap-thing holding your pilot ID. Is that allowed?"
(ME) "Why, yes it is. Does the job just fine, thanks for asking!"
(PAX) "Well, I think it's wrong. It shouldn't be allowed."
I have a lanyard holding my badge that reads (in pretty small print) "I LOVE JESUS".....not because I'm a harcore Bible thumper (I AM NOT), but because it's simply navy & white and has a heavy-duty clasp on it that I happen to really like. I mean, it's not like it says "Grey Goose Vodka Lover", "#1 Devil Worshiper" or "I heart ALPA".
I know people who have Dutch Flags, their kid's school football team, Hello Kitty and sports team lanyards. God forbid she sees any stickers on some of our crew bags & cases! I haven't seen any company policy dictating lanyard ettiqette. What's everyone else wearing?
