Depending on your stutter (mine's pretty severe) it depends. I personally wanted to be a judge or a surgeon, but I understand how critical communication is in those professions, especially for a surgeon. There's usually 0 time to slip up and the slightest delay could cost a life. So I settled with dentistry. You're in people's mouths all day and you don't have to talk much besides explaining a procedure. For non-career jobs, I always steered away from retail and customer service. Not like I would've gotten them anyway with all the discrimination I got. Why hire a stutterer when you can just hire someone who doesn't?
