The race may already be lost, but still.

    In the US.

    God, I literally was told by my manager at my first job to tell customers, when they got a random survey, that anything less than a 10 is a 0.

    Japan does 5 star ratings proper.

          I don’t know why, but that gave me a similar visceral reaction to hearing “if you have time to lean, you have time to clean”

            Next time someone say this, find a stick, haul it at them and shout „Duck!“. If they don’t duck, they got what they deserve. If they do duck, then say „If you can duck the stick, you can suck this dick“, whip your dick out and stick it in their mouth.

      A three-star restaurant on Tabelog is life-changing cuisine. I’m not sure what you’d have to do to earn four, but it’s probably illegal.

      Had to deal with similar surveys. Rating was 1-10, 8-9 was “just OK”, 10 was “your ratings better be here”, and anything 7 or lower was a serious issue.

      That’s how our state scores conditions for learning surveys that factor into our school district “report cards.” I just flat out tell kids that I proctor for “if you ACTUALLY agree with the statement, choose strongly agree.” All other answers are scored as negative.
