I am going to get my first ever job (probably in fast food or retail) in the summer break after junior year of high school, but I stutter. Do these kinds of jobs hire anybody, even people who give a dismal speaking performance at the interview?

Pretty sure this is normal. Not trying to insult you or anyone but I think we stutter when we speak to people that their opinion is important to us. For example I've been living for my own for a year ...

Yes. Be up front. If she responded negative to your stutter, I suspect it was not to your stutter itself, but your reaction to it (embarrassed, low self-confidence etc). If you can get comfortabl...
