Same deal for me. Shouldn't stop you in your career at all though. I'm in journalism and talk all day and can do this job just fine. The only problem with stuttering is in your own head. Recently I had a big phone call coming up with two of my bosses. It was on a new initiative I was spearheading and I was super excited about. I knew they were calling sometime in the afternoon but expected it to be around 3pm. I work mostly from home and had just finished my big deadline, so I went down for a nap at like 11am (I had to get all my stuff in just before that, so had been up very early). Anyway they called me at like 11:45am and I woke up in full zombie mode. It was like a 40 minute conversation and only by the end was I starting to wake up and be able to make sense again. They didn't care and neither does anyone else though. You're doing the right thing being in the ring of fire there. Exposure is the best cure. The real cure, to my mind, is accepting your stutter, and then it doesn't become a stress or a problem anymore. edit: spelling
