Have you ever told them that you stutter? Be upfront about it, if they make fun of you fuck them, we're only alive for a short time, don't be worried about ignorant dickheads making fun of something t...

Definitely. I work in HR and it doesn't come out much, but when it does people are noticeably more relaxed when talking about their own problems....

> I do stutter sometimes Holy fucking shit get over yourself. I stutter on roughly every second word and apply for counselor positions. Absolutely worst case scenario you get interview experience...

It does make us tough because if you're a functioning adult that means you've dealt with it in some way. In other words you haven't let it stop you from getting a job, maybe living on your own, etc. ...

Yeah, and if it *is* a customer service job, it means "don't be an asshole to the customers." Really......if you are polite and patient with people who might be annoyed, what more can they ask for? ...

Well....I think that the fact that you are even thinking about applying for this means you should. I know you are scared, but do it? Just apply. See what happens. If it gets to the point where t...

Yea. But if you somehow ended up as the only generally competent person that applied and they desperately need employees you still have a chance. ...

Warehouse work gets a lot easier the more you do it. Don't hesitate to ask questions especially if you're using a tool or machine!...

Stay positive Man. I know it's easier said than done; but trust me. I like you was in special ed, I went to Boys Town in Omaha, NE twice for it, I had speech therapy for 17 years, I joined the ARMY ...

At work its the worst. I'm supposed to be able to approach customers and talk on the phone a lot; but nobody has really questioned it yet after two years, which is nice for now haha....

I can attest to this. I'm a stutterer in a highly technical leadership position, much of my day is spent communicating abstract concepts and teaching. I have to talk so much during the day my voice is...

I hope it is because this is my career goal! I have my bachelors in psych and am looking into grad school to get my masters. Since psych is something you're interested in, could you take so classes at...
