We have quite a few EMEA/APAC employees here where I work. The one I'm thinking of in particular is German. My band is on my left hand and I never take it off, though many posts here make me rethink the safety of leaving it on while working on mechanicals. Like has been said before, I've heard that wearing a band on your right hand means you're on the other team. However, the German guy said most Europeans wear their bands on the right hand because it's closer to your heart. Coincidence or not, don't we all typically put our right hand over our hearts when we say the pledge or sing the nat'l anthem?
