I think having the whistle hanging out of your pocket is just another ritual. I don't see it being a big deal either way. Really, people don't pay as much attention to us as some of us think.

What I do with my whistle is actually on the opposite end of this discussion. When I start getting dressed, I put my whistle around my neck...before I do anything else. Well, almost anything - depending on what I'm wearing. If I'm wearing anything except a tie, the whistle goes on before I start undressing. It is just something I do and have done for a long time.
