    many new visitors think that it indicates a "lack of respect. " This is especially
    true in the business world. Americans often use first names 11 meeting a stranger

    such an informal greeting really means the 13 thing as a more formal hand shake
    someplace else. 14 , Americans do not usually give a special "farewell" or hand
    shake to each person when they leave a party or business meeting. They will often
