---- menu before content in code, or content before menu? (screen readers)

With absolute positioning I put a menu next to the content, which is a not so long text every time.
In the document I can place the menu before the the content, so then I think people with screen readers will first hear all the menu items before getting to the content. I can also do it otherwise so the don't have to listen to the menu items every time, but then I think the menu is harder to access? And I think it may be non-standard.
I couldn't find this in WCAG.
What would be the best? Thanks.
