Where to wear a name tag
There is some debate as to which side of the lapel name tags should be worn. Most people^[who?] who are knowledgeable in such areas will proclaim the right side to be the only correct side.

In the military it tends to go on the left, no?

Are name tags the same as medals, though?
Medals are worn on the left unless they are decorations earned by a deceased relative you are representing at a military event, in which case they're worn on the right.

I don't bloody know - I'm just a vagabond - do I look like Hugo fucking Boss?

I don't know what you look like, duck.
You did just remind me of my very military-minded history teacher at school, who told us that some sergeant-majors would inform soldiers on parade that their fly was undone by saying "Your medals are showing."

Well the man's clearly a racist and needs to be shot.
Now - what's for lunch?

Bully beef boiled in tea and hard tack, of course: the stuff of Empire-building.
Plus, the soufflé and amuse-bouches aren't set to arrive until next week.

I'd say the front

Well, 'most people' are fucking idiots
Left is the correct side. When you meet somebody and shake hands you generally use your right hand so the right-hand side of the chest can be easily obscured. Having the badge on the top-left maximises the visibility of the badge in this greeting situation and the ease of reading the badge.

Christ. Why would you want to shake hands with the sort of pleb who wears a name badge
let alone give a shit about remembering their name?

One of my sincere wishes is to meet the queen, just so that when she gets to me I can be first off the block and ask
"And what do you do?"

Try "have you come far?"
Or, "this part of the house isn't normally open to the public".
