People should think more before they speak Hello! So, its only Wednesday but I am having really bad week. On Monday I had to go the company because I am intern from my university. They asked me several questions, i spoke pretty good and then she asked my name and I stuttered, she laughed and asked “omg haha did u forget it!” And I answered “no there is something called stutter and i have it, no problem telling u anything about me” that was in front of my group mates and i felt pretty offended. BUT that was nothing compared to what happened today, i went in the shop to buy the cigarette, the women seemed rude before that, so she asked my age and i stuttered while saying it and she said omg how old can u be u cant even tell you age, I answered her the same as to the previous woman. Why people have to be so rude and make me feel that is something wrong with me? It ruined my whole day. Why people can’t realize that we are all fighting some battles and their cynical comments can really mean a lot. I wanna go back and like punch her , I feel i dont deserve to be treated like that
