when I'm eating/talking on the phone/whatever and only have one hand, and need a plus sign, I may.

You don't touch-type, do you....

Nope. That was about the only thing I didn't listen to in typing class and just got used to making Q W A S Z etc with my left hand only. Worked fine for me so far...

I type quickly and still don't use it. I probably should i just didn't get it down at the beginning and its a bad habit that has stuck. Using or not using it wouldn't seriously affect speed IMO

Sometimes you only have one hand free, and it is tough to use the shift key and reach a letter all the way on the other side of the keyboard. I often choose the shift key that is closest to the letter I want to use it with.
