    For me personally, until a month ago I had no idea why people would prefer to watch at faster speed.

    Then I was assigned 10 hours of training at work, and it was all the worst fucking videos you’ve ever seen, no editing for clarity or brevity, points being repeated at nausea. Repeated footage. And it’s not like I could skip vast portions of it, I never knew when a little piece of key information would be snuck in which was in the knowledge test.

    Finally said to myself fuck this and I put it on 2x. I found it kind of life-changing in that moment and I’m going to consider using faster watch speeds from now on.

      Ive experienced that too :) These companies that make training videos for employees, seems like anyone could succeed there. Literally no quality, but thats fine, the manager gets his checkbox checked, all employees trained.
