One thing I miss from retail was the in-store intercom/paging system.
You give me a loudspeaker and I become a total ham. I have a Game Show Host version of my voice I use for just such occasions. Those of a certain age will swear I sound a lot like Moviephone.
My favorite manager at the grocery store was Wanda, because paging her was so much fun. "WANDA RED LINE, WAAAANDAAAA REDLINE, PLEASE!"
And the Container Store called their registers "bays" and they were lettered A and B.
"REGISTER BACKUP TO BAY B, REGISTER BACKUP BABY!"
