Unless the photo is mirrored both of the saucy petunias(1) are mousing left handed. As a long-time ambidextrous mouser I always notice when someone has a mouse on the left side; it's very unusual.

(1) Pardon my misogyny, it's not my fault I plead media-induced Trump overload! :lol:

The photo is mirrored, look at the led area of the keyboard above the numeric keypad: it's on the left.

I'm an ambidextrous mouse user but prefer placing it to the left and using it with my left hand. I don't swap the buttons, however. And I keep telling coworkers that the right place of the mouse is to the left :lol:

Funny how they look good from either side! :lol:

I do a lot of things left handed but not everything; for example in baseball I throw left but bat right. When mice first came into being (yeah, I know, I'm one of those old dudes) I moused right handed until it hurt me. Then I switched. Now both my hands hurt... :cry:

You know you are expected to feed the mice, or they will bite your hands, don't you? :mrgreen:
