Don't use your pinky, use the meat of your hand to press the control key.

That way I also press Shift, Fn and the Windows key, while holing my hand in a very unergonomic position.

This is how I also use the control key, using the bone in my hand right where the pinky attaches to the hand. When ctrl is in the very corner, it's easy to press. When it's to the right of the fn (like on the apple keyboard I am currently using), it is significantly harder.
