Brewster has an unusual habit

[Doc1001]

I am sure many of you have noticed----he says just about everything twice---he says just about everything twice----i seriously wonder if he didnt grow up with someone in his family hard of hearing. I dont mean this critically but it is unusual. Listen to him talk to his team. He says about everything twice.

 

[wait!what?]

also likes to say - 'outstanding'

Yes, this was pointed out eloquently by Pat Reusse on the day Brewster was hired. Pat called him Timmy Two Times.

Interesting...interesting. I never noticed...never noticed.

Jimmy Two Times: I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers.

It's probably just a product of trying to get points across to 18-22 year old kids.

Just like Marge Simpson says, "Sorry to repeat myself, but it'll help you remember." I'll be damned if Bart didn't remember that Springfield was "a part of us all."

Tremendous observation.

I couldn't be more pleased with this habit

So did Shakespeare.

Not that it's relevant.

I do a lot of training and think I've developed a similar habit away from the job. My grown children would likely say I repeat everything a lot more than twice.

I noticed that today watching the video on play4brew as well. My first thought was that he does it so he can formulate what to say next without missing a beat, because he rarely takes pauses while speaking.

Actually I've noticed that many trainers do that as well. Some find it annoying, but it gets the point across. I'm sure he also does it for dramatic effect.

I, too, have an unusual habit...When standing in a line of people, I pick my nose and rub it on the person next to me.

The problem is that it loses its dramatic effect when its done all the time. Despite that I think that Brewster's style is somewhat inspiring.

Jim Rome, on his national radio show says everything 3 times. Telling a punch line or a story, for him it looks like he is just trying to fill time, for Brewster it is a habit. When one wins it is a quirk, but if one doesn't win consistently it is annoying

Whew! I was worried when I saw the thread title. I thought Brewster mayh be addicted to body piercing or tattoos.
