Hello! I am Elena Brouwer, International Etiquette Center in Hollywood, Florida. You can find us on the web at etiquettecenter.com. And to continue in a business setting, we need to be aware of the rules of the office. For example, let’s observe and see what is going on in this particular one. A: Fix this. What time is it? B: It is almost 12. C: Hi! Sorry I am late, I had to call the doctor this morning for my son because he didn't want to eat and he didn’t call back and then traffic turned out to be hell, so sorry I am late I am going to start off now there I guess. This lady doesn’t have it together, she is rushed, she is giving too many excuses, and did you notice her handbag, she is wearing the suit, but she is wearing a handbag that looks more like beachwear. If you want to look professional, a briefcase is always a good idea to carry and may be a small handbag but not something that clashes with the rest of your outfit; you will not be taken seriously.
