Hey OP, Call center manager here. I started on the front-lines answering calls, and worked my way up. I've been in the industry for roughly 15 years. No sugar coating it, it sucked. It sucked a LOT. ...

Did your employers know you stutter? Truly, 99 out of a 100 people (likely more) have sympathy for that. I stutter at times during presentations as well, particularly if it's people I don't know but ...
