Working without a lanyard

[ref18]

I can't think of a reason, it's just personal preference. I know that in my area, I haven't seen anyone without a lanyard.

Now that being said, I can't think of a good reason not to work with a lanyard.

Although an evaluator told me I should get rid of the noose and go to the smitty because everyone else has one. I guess everyone wants us to look the same.
