Meishi
Today, I designed meishi (名刺) for my new position, then requested a specialized vendor to print it.
Meishi means "business card" or "name card," which is a very important item in Japanese business situations because exchanging business cards is a customary practice in Japan.
Here, mei (名) means "name," and shi (刺) means "wooden or bamboo plate."
Business cards originated in China, and people used to write their names on wooden or bamboo plates to let others know they had come, which is thought to have led to the origin of the word meishi.
