Officers, especially Warrant Officers, love to put hands in pockets. But what really gets me is one that most soldiers don't even know: removing headgear from one's head when entering any government controlled building on a military base including when in civilian clothes. I pulled this up every time I had CQ while in Korea and it was usually the same group of Specialists and PFCs but I have seen some Sergeants who are guilty of this one. I don't wear hats when off duty and therefore I don't violate it. Only reason I knew this was a thing was because it was a board question back when I got my P-status a few years ago.

Mine own biggest violation was most likely loosening my tie at work in my office, even removing it which was permissible if I removed my ribbons, which I didn't do.

Hands in pockets or not wearing headgear correctly. Biggest violators--younger troops E4 and down.

I overlook earbuds in ears as my Soldiers run the APFT! I tell them before every APFT, as long as you are running, not half assing anything and I see improvement I won't say a word. On the other hand if you're not giving 110%, you will take them out and you will not wear them again.
