Has this happened to anyone here too? I got caught stuttering on one word at work. 5 people heard it and probably a lot more people know it too now. I was trying to hide my stutter but I just couldn't say the word. It was so embarrassing and frustrating. I didn't stutter during my interviews which probably made my hiring manager wonder why I couldn't say that one word. My work doesn't involve talking to customers; it's 100% reporting and documents.
