Used to be that way....Dreaded answering the phone.. But after a while being unemployed...Not being able to find that perfect fit Job.....Out of frustration I started a home based business...I am a Office Administrator....Because I may have paying clients..or work as a independent contractor for ither companies..... I had to get over hating answering the phone...that would be one of my job duties...I signed up with(DHS) a Social Services Agency in my State area that helped me get Speech Adaptive Software on my ipad...it works with a Landline Phone...It's called TD Snap...What it does is...It let me talk/ type in what I want to say on the other end of the phone...The Clients hear a voice that is stutter free..that sound exactly like me talking on the phone.. Perhaps such software can help you too...You can only get it through a Social Service Agency... Hope for the best for you.
