A stutterer working at a call center After months of searching for a job, i finally got an offer to work at a call center answering calls. Now that is not the ideal job for a stutterer like me but im forced to take the job so i can pay my college funds. I'll be starting the job tomorrow and im very nervous about it. My heart wont stop beating and i cant sleep. I dont know how im gonna handle talking to strangers for 11 hours a day. Any advice on controlling my stutter would be greatly appreciated. :(
