What hand are you?

Lefty here! WOO!

In general I'm right handed. However, working in a lab you learn to use both hands (makes life a lot easier). So, at work I'm ambidextrous.

Im Ambi although i favor my right for a lot of things..

I'm right handed, but I can do some things left handed, but not very much.

Right handed.

As a techie, I would like to thank you - we do like a challenge.

Ambi here

I'm Right handed.

In addition to being my non-dominant hand, my left is afflicted with arthritis AND carpal tunnel syndrome.

The only thing that I can do well, left-handed, is fire a rifle. My father is left-handed and he taught me how to shoot.

Righty here!

right handed as well.

I'm a righty, but I can also do a lot of things with my left hand because I have broken my right fingers and things a lot! clumsy ol' me!

Holy Moses, only 6 south paws here?

I am completely left handed but oddly enough I use scissors, operate my mouse, and use an adding machine with my right hand.

I voted right-handed, but that's by necessity. I was a south paw until I was twelve, and broke my left wrist in a fall (rollerskating). The cast was off two days, when I got knocked over in the schoolyard, and rebroke it. At 13, my left wrist got smashed in a field hockey game. All those breaks left me with nerve damage (no feeling in most of the hand), so I write with my right hand. I still find myself trying to open jars or sew with my left hand, and have to switch to my right.

I've been wondering this since Beth mentioned the techie having to rearrange her desk space because she's a lefty. I use my left hand for my mouse even though I'm right handed. That seems odd now that I think about it. Do most right handed people use their left hand for their mouse?

I'm a lefty and use my right hand for the mouse at home. At work I use my left hand.

I'm right handed and I've always moused with my right. The question made me curious, though, especially as I do do some things left handed and swap back and forth for others -- it occurred to me that it might be useful to mouse left-handed, leaving the right free for grabbing implements less amenable to switching, such as pens. So I'm trying it out. It's a bit confusing, but I suspect it won't take too long to get used to it. (It's actually getting a bit of a workout right now, as Rob is upstairs at his computer and we have a POPUP conversation going on -- I've had to go for the mouse about a dozen times in this paragraph that had nothing to do with this message.)

I'm underhanded.

Okay actually, I'm left handed. I don't do everything left handed though. For example, I throw with my right.

I only use my right hand for writting,I use my left for everything else.

Me too, I use an adding machine or the number pad on the keypad at work with my right-hand and it comes to me quite naturally to do it. I think that's because I can run my left hand down the column of figures I'm using and write the totals if I need to without having to move away from the number pad to pick up a pen etc.
