Should I take a talking job to help beat my stuttering ? Hi guys. It's Kyle from South Africa. Many of you guys probably are familiar with me, I've posted before about how my speech has improved since using the Pausing and Phrasing technique. I just want to know...one of my school classmates offered to organize a sales and customer service job at a Cellphone network shop in a mall. Should I take it ? I still stutter but I feel as if my speech will really really improve if I'm under pressure to talk with customers that come in. It will be a mix of both customers coming in for sales and enquiring plus also I'll occasionally answer the phone. Should I go for it ?
