Nah, most businesses are using the top box score. 9-10 gets 1 point, any other score gets 0 points. Then they add up all the 1s and take it as a percentage of the total. If your percentage isn’t high enough, you get your pay deducted or fired.

8 and 1 count exactly the same: 0 points.

My point is was, not is. This is pre 1-5 scale, as in years ago.
