Hands in pockets - a sign of weakness?

A new-ish guy I work with constantly comes up to my desk to ask me questions about random things. I don't mind him or his questions, as I'd rather have someone ask than sit in silence and not learn anything. However, the dude always sheepishly walks up with his hands in his pockets and keeps them there during the entire duration of his conversation with me. I don't know why, but it drives me insane.
When I was a kid, my dad would tell me to take my hands out of my pockets in any situation. I guess maybe that has been ingrained a little too hard? Or is this a common belief?

No, I just like jerking myself off with my fingertips. It’s a talent I take pride in.

You trying to check his knuckles?

He's playing with himself in your presence.

Nothing wrong with some pocket pool.

It takes all types. Guy is probably just a nervous individual or feels like he is a burden asking questions. Sometimes people can be considerate to a fault.
The way I look at it, at least he's taking initiative to ask questions and has the confidence to do that.

I'm not sure why, but in the USMC we'd get knocked the hell out for having hands in our pockets.
Go ahead and smack the shite out of him!
...he could just be cold, baw, or awkwardly attempting to decide what to do with his hands.
I still say hit him.

he's probably just not intimidated by you in the least bit to entertain the idea that he has to impress his manliness upon you.

maybe it's just a convenient way for him to discreetly scratch his testicles?

It is definitely a sign of low confidence or being nervous. Talk to him and see if you can help make a change.

It's a cruel joke. They give you all those pockets and then yell at you if they see you using them.

Never heard of pool pocket
Bet he has a hole in one or possibly both of those pockets.
He thinks you’re cute.
Lucky for him he sounds like your type.

I tend to get very animated with my hands when I'm talking so I either fold my arms or put my hands in my pockets.
If I fold my arms people think I'm an a-hole. If I put my hands in my pockets people think I'm a bitch.
I guess I'll try the "prayer hands" next.

What rank is he that determines the number of fingers one can have in their pocket...

I've gotten this or people think I'm disinterested. It is just the most comfortable way for me to sit. That's it.
People are so insecure.

Maybe he has a pocket pistol and he's thinking about popping you with it?

He definitely thinks OP will suck him off

He has no respect for you and is just amusing himself out of boredom.
