A good use for the left hand

I'm right-handed, but I generally tend to carry things in my left hand. This makes it easier to shake hands or salute (some habits die hard).

Yes, I've noticed it is quite common for people to carry their objects in their non-dominant hand. That leaves their dominant hand free for, as you said, shaking and saluting...also opening doors, or getting things out of wallets, things like that.
