Two tuna sandwiches Hey guys! I recently discovered this sub and it helps me so much! You people are amazing! But anyways, I read something a while ago and thought you guys would enjoy it: A couple of years ago, I read the autobiography of Jack Welch (who was CEO of General Electric and a super famous manager and also stuttered). At some point, he told the story of how in college he used to order a lot of tuna sandwiches, but he would always get two instead of one, cause he would stutter and say tu-tuna sandwich, and the waitress would hear two tuna sandwiches. **I don't think I've ever empathized with anything more in my entire life!**
