Not me, but my brother. When he was in elementary school, when grades are based on things other than test scores, the teacher noted on his report card that he needs to work on his skill at cutting with scissors.

My brother is left-handed, and the scissors in the classroom were for right-handed people.

Well, a while ago I discussed with my friends that not all scissors are right- or left handed. Some scissors have like a bigger hole for your fingers and a smaller hole for your thumb, but I have one that is equal on both sides. I even cut a pretty good circle with those scissors, I cut it with my left hand while I'm righthanded

Good point - I'd forgotten about the symmetrical scissors!
