"Hello. I'm [your first and last name]. CAN YOU DO IT?

NAME TAGS: In the United States, proper etiquette states the name tag should be worn above the pocket on the right side of your shirt, blouse, or blazer. The key thing to remember, as mentioned above, is that you want the people you are meeting to be able to make direct eye contact with you and closely see your name as you shake hands. LAPEL PINS: The correct location for a lapel pin is the left side of a jacket, near the heart. The United States Flag Code Section 8(J) states the following about wearing an American flag pin: “The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.” Keep in mind, however, some organizations have specific rules about when and where to wear a pin that might contradict the above statement. Generally speaking though, since most individuals wear pins that signify something important to them, they wear them on the left side near the heart. - Amanda J.
