Any left-hander who has tried to cut with right-handed scissors knows this can be an exercise in frustration. My mom once told me about being called to my elementary school to discuss the teacher’s concern that I could not cut properly. She took one look at the right-handed scissors that the teacher had me cutting with and knew what the problem was. Easiest teacher conference ever.
