Finding a new job is NOT the answer because OP could have the same foolish behavior at their new place of work. I agree with reporting the behavior to your HR department and supervisor of you feel har...

Don't stoop to their level. Just go above their head. What they are doing is harassment, and their superior and/or HR should be aware. Document and report the issue, and either they will resolve it --...

Not sure if you’re in the US but this person is creating a hostile work environment by harassing you for your ADA recognized disability. I’d escalate to HR if possible....

Thanks for the kind words. I’ve been determined to not let my stutter limit my career and honestly, it has come with some great challenges. That’s a story for another day maybe. For sure I could tal...

Hi, I am sorry you are being bullied at your workplace. I can imagine how hard it must be for you. Our work forms a considerable part of our lives, and having a toxic work environment can really take ...

I do not know how things are in the country the job is or the country you're located. I'm in the US and there are laws that in theory protect the disabled from disability discrimination. I'm 35 and ha...

>I am not a person that confronts people with their behaviors towards me. You have to become that person at some point if you want to deal with the bullying. It’s not easy, I still struggle with it s...

If you're in a workplace with hr, go to the HR department. Maybe if that doesn't work, just try and avoid this person. Nothing is worth getting into an argument over, and if you're anything like me, y...

Impact on my career or not

Impact on my career or not Hello all, I am having a struggle at work that I need some perspectives on and I think this thread could be helpful. Background I am a stutterer since childhood. Have ha...

To be honest, there isn't really much you can do. This is simply the sad reality for stutterers like you and me. Even if you are extremely qualified for the job, how much you stutter will definitely i...

I'm honestly in a bad place financial and employment wise, so I really have to be out 12 hours daily running doordash and uber to get by, and I spend my days off business hopping, looking for a stable...

Yeah this usually does happen to most of us, last week i was in an airport flying back home and this old dude asked me if im getting on the same flight he is, i stuttered badly and he literally just i...

I work in a grocery store. One time, a man with what I can only gusse had a thick Jamaican accent asked me a question. I had to ask what he was asking for about 2 times. Still not knowing what he was ...

Well in this current woke age, it would be hard for a company to kick you out (unless you suck at work hard). Handicap folks are sort of “protected class”. So stutter away baby..hahahahaahhaha...

In some cases yeah. It pushed me to take everything else more seriously because I felt I couldn't just rely on talking my way out of it. So working hard in school and more to let my grades and knowl...

Nice, thanks for writing and sharing it with others! I had a fascinating experience where I went from sharing my stutter, almost as a way to lessen my own fear of it knowing that if I share it, they ...

I do not think i could be able to work in a call centre, i believe i have learned to mask my stutter but im not that comfortable with it to work with phones😂...

Many years ago, when I was unemployed, I could still refuse to take jobs that involved a call centre / phone sales without losing my benefits....

Thank you for writing this! In a world where everyone is trying to fix their stutter, reading your post was such a breather and provided a lot of clarity to my own thoughts about stuttering. I often g...
