Work

So one of my managers at work was asking me about what I was studying in school. And of coarse when you tell someone that you are a communication sciences and disorders major, they just kind of look at you like what on earth does that mean. So I told him what the major was all about and what I ultimately wanted to do. And he got super excited because he said he went to speech therapy as a young kid. When I asked him what for he said, "can you really not tell?" I just looked at him and said no.... not really. They he said he went for stuttering, because when he would get excited or nervous he would just completely freeze. So I told him no, I really cant tell that you have a stutter and that therapy must have worked. But later on in his shift I did notice  him briefly stutter once or twice, and he would look at me like see I told you. I just thought it was cool to connect with someone like that, and now we have something else to talk about. And he said it was nice to talk to someone who understands what he is talking about, so that made me feel good. So that was my happy story of the week.
