I worked produce at Superstore in early 2000's.

One of our friends was the rollerblader and when a bunch of us worked together, we used to collaborate and set Home Alone style traps for him in the store to try and make him bail.

Our favorite was fake paging him to go to a certain area of the store and pour a bit of water at some corners.

Water + rollerblades + shiny Superstore tile floors = trouble.

Those were the days. No helmets, no safety protocols. No one cared about their jobs cause we were young.
I bet you couldn't get away with having rollerblading price checkers in stores these days due to liability/safety issues.
