Does Anyone Still Round Up at the Terminal?

A Survey of Operator-Reported Assent at the Charity Prompt, and the Pitch-Withdrawal Rule Drawn From Its Lower Quartile

A paper from the School of Continuous Improvement fields the round-up assent log with 814 supermarket, strip-mall and food-truck operators, reporting venue-typed distributions of the share of a typical shift that still taps Yes on the charity prompt (food-truck median 7 per cent, supermarket median 34 per cent; pooled lower quartile 6 per cent), and records the University's decision to withdraw next term's campus-market pitch from the 204 operators in that quartile, with no till-level override.
