Was it confirmed that the stutter is what lost you the job? Depending on the job, it is illegal to discriminate against neurophysiological disorders. It's called "disability discrimination". They are often required to provide accommodations. I would inquire about that if I were you - maybe email if you'd prefer not to speak on the phone or in person. Regardless of that injustice, it's really quite a shame to see so many stutterers have this type of issue, in how strongly it affects our livelihoods. There are in fact some jobs that involve lots of speaking and we just have a hard time with those, or can't do them at all. I know I could never take a job that involves taking phone calls because speaking on the phone is one of my biggest challenges. We are certainly dealt an unfair hand. But I think there is still a lot we *can* do regardless of our stutter, in terms of work. I don't know the details of what your job offer was or where you are skilled, but developing skills outside of speech remains thoroughly possible for us. There's a lot of potential, but it's easy and frustrating to get stuck focusing on what we can't do.
