At one of my old jobs, the yearly review system for employees consisted of different categories like communication, finishing assigned tasks in time, etc. on a scale of 1 to 5.

Supervisors were forbidden from giving any worker a 5 in any category because "there's always room for improvement." I always thought it was horseshit because what's even the point of having a 5 in the first place?

    That’s dumb as shit but is also how I internally think of rating things, on a 5 star scale a true 5 is basically unachievable, it’s kind of an asymptotic approach towards 5, but I round up and call it a 5 at a certain point because otherwise that’s just a 4 point scale
