For me, that is the hardest thing to deal with being a person who stutters… it’s the blocks that get you the confused and shocked looks and the crazy assumptions made about you. My current job I work at a warehouse for Walmart, If I speak to one of the many managers and block, then they start speaking to you differently like you’re “slow”, especially the female managers.
