I wrote a long comment here and lost it. Fuck. Best part was that sometimes people on the phone think my getting stuck is a sneeze. I'm trying to figure out how to shape a block so it sounds like a sneeze in person. No success yet! Gist of my sadly deleted comment was that cops carry a card to read Miranda from and if they fuck it up they just read it over so God forbid you get the job and say one you flub on the swear in.... You really don't have to worry about losing the job or anything like that just for repeating. I always feel like it's a crisis but I need to tell myself it's not. Trying to imagine someone on the stand being rude to you, a member of the court. Pretty sure the judge has your back as long as you do your thing and you seem pretty confident otherwise. Totally joking in order to share a comedy link here. Only playful sarcasm! If it doesn't go how you want you might consider a career as a ... Home stenographer! https://youtu.be/hUSZxWJivP0 nsfw clip of a comedy sketch from Chappelle's Show years ago. Anyway! Speaking advice wise ... I'm non treatment for my stutter because I'm SLP resistant. The only thing that gets me through scripted phone calls and customer face to face interactions is my /customer service voice/. It's like my voice but almost entirely void of me, my personality, concerns or meaning lol. Hard to describe but when someone has said "you don't know how to do your job, this place has the worst service and I'm never coming back." My customer service voice becomes the savior of my job. Customer service me smiles borderline too friendly while speaking to disarm angry customers says "O I'm sorry to hear that ma'am! Here, Let me check on the status of your request and I'll be right back with you!" This voice also allows me to do stuff like sort of singsong things like receipt totals with numbers I struggle to fluently state "It's UHhh-🎶hummm🎶 twennn teetwo dollars and thiiir teeen cents." Between the hum and the smile I figure worst case someone thinks I'm a simpleton but none has indicated they notice me sounding like a robot. I had someone ask if I was practicing my sports announcer voice because of the cadence. Willing to bet any stutterer can get out something like a "Fuck off, then!" But can't say that to a customer. I did hear a coworker ask a woman who kept saying she was going to never come back. "Do you *promise*🥹?" In the same customer service voice.
