Stutter and waitering \-Disclaimer about my stutter- I may stuck when I try to start a sentence and sometimes I repeat a syllable in a word. I don't speak fluently sometimes I stop or breathe in the middle of a sentence. I'm 20 and I need to work. I'm gonna look for waitering jobs. I've worked as a waitress before (for about 2 months). I feel a little anxious about stuttering when taking orders. But I also see it as an opportunity to get out of my comfort zone. I know deeply that if I exert myself to being comfortable with my stutter, I can finally live the life I want. It would be really nice if there's any experiences or tips you can share. Thank you!
