When it becomes noticeable, I'll chuckle and make a small joke just to keep it from being uncomfortable for the interviewer. It's worked in the past, never been unemployed and currently have what is e...

Of course. You have found what works for you and that's great. I don't have any hope in gaining good fluency. So I've stopped trying. What I am trying to fix is how I feel about stuttering....

When I say cured I mean fluent speech that non-stutterers have. I cannot explain why I am more fluent at times than others. In some high stress situations I'm as fluent as a tree stump while in other...
