Thank you! You are exactly right. I do compare myself to others and forget how far I have come. Sometimes, it's too easy to get bogged down in the here and now. I do appreciate how hard I have worked ...

I’m an appliance technician. I do service calls and fix and re sell washers/dryers on the side. In high school I was a big science and math nerd and didn’t think I would be in the trades. But it’s goo...

The good thing is that you can use this job as a reference. I think just having somebody who can vouch for the work you do goes a long way....

Long story short I'm 31 and work a dead end isolated job because I could never hold a good job where communication is needed, people where always major assholes to me because of the stutter so I becam...

"don't limit yourself because of the way you talk". It's not in your hands. When u can't communicate at all. You're on the mercy of the other person who's hiring. It's not all about "mindset" when eve...

I'm a severe stutter/stammer but thanks for assuming. My point was don't limit yourself BECAUSE of the way you talk. Don't take bullshit jobs or settle for less, that mindset is giving in to what torm...

Same thing for me. I write everything on chat for meetings etc and somebody reads it out mostly. Working well for now but I'm not sure if I'd find another job like this...

Hey! Any job is definately possible. I just launched the first Slack-based stuttering community for professionals who stutter 3 months ago - you should check it out and join for free if you're interes...

I love seeing positive posts on here. It’s inspiration that we can have the things most people have if we just take a chance on ourselves. We are our own worse enemies at times. I definitely thought a...

My husband (he stutters, not me) used text to speech for his dissertation defense. It was the only reasonable option, since he’d have to be giving long, technical answers to a lot of questions within ...

I started UPS with the intent of it being temporary but its been five years and every night I think to myself "this is nice I dont have to talk to anyone" I sort boxes and its pretty easy I just memor...

When my stutter was severe I worked as an admin assistant in local government. It was mostly data entry, dealing with correspondence, that sort of thing. I didn't really have to answer the phone as th...

It sucks having to rely on people’s kindness, but I’m glad that you found a team with kind people. I think that for people with severe stutter it should be valid to rely in similar resources (if not...

I’m a mid level QA Engineer for a cyber company. And yes, I speak daily via meetings. I understand the difficulties having a stutter has, so I’m not here to down play anyone’s experiences. But please ...

Though probably more accessible in group meetings, I would think. Unless you had a tablet hooked up to screen or projector, I suppose. In any case: Reasonable Accommodation....

I stutter and defintley impacts my life and is noticeable. But in my current job as a paid labor organizer, I have to meet with people and give presentations frequently. It could just be because most ...

>Finally found a company where they let me type what i have to say instead of actually speaking. I've been here for over 2 years now. Text to speech is hardly a new technology. I would expect in m...

Look in the trades. Work that has clear expectations and not much debate on how things should be done. I know people with disabilities and language barriers that work in jobs like: welding, commercial...

Director of Operations for an Auto Auction. Everyone has been super cool worth my stutter....

IT or graphic design. It's what I do anyway... Learn Power BI or something. It's easy and you don't need to communicate too much!...
