That was my first job 20 years ago and I will be honest, I bombed the interview. I stuttered, twitched, and ummmmm my words so much that I just wanted to jump out of the chair and run to door. But for some reason I got hired and was placed in drive thru taking orders where I also stuttered. But that experience allowed me to understand my stutter more and helped me build the confidence I needed to welcome my stutter and not let it dictate my life. My best advice is don't try to hide your stutter. Take deep breaths before you speak and don't let it control you. It will make things so much easier. Good luck!
