I'm a lefty... I have to get EVERYTHING left handed. When one of my bosses found out I was ambidextrous, he said: "Great, now I can stop looking for those damn lefty scribes!"

I **** you not.

(At the time, I was working as a circuit inspector, and had to etch my tag and date on the circuit boards with a scribe tool. They look like pencils, nothing to differentiate between left or right.)
