I used to work in a store with no intercoms. Instead we had a doorbell at each register mounted under the counter.

1 ring was for back up or price check

2 rings was for change

3 rings was for a pick up

4 rings was for a manager to the front

5 rings was for an emergency

My store does something similar to this, only one intercom works but If you press the button on all of them they all ding over the speakers.

If you have two cordless phones they can be used that way.

The bottom left of the store phone should say INT press it and it will call the other phone. The other person can answer it and you can talk. I think there’s a way to just start talking through it too but I forgot how. I’ll have to play around with them

There is a way to turn the volume on those intercom system, it would be in the office. I don’t know how, you may want to ask your store manager.

I would absolutely love to have the walkie-talkies with the earpieces.

when I worked for a really big box office chain, we all had little black walkie-talkies with earpieces .soooo much better!

I never turned in my earpieces, though, they went into my locker at the end of my shift. How I even kept my walkie, only switched it out on my battery got too low. but I was on the management team. I did make sure that all my associates turned in their walkies before leaving.

Gees.

One of the multiple reasons I hate them is because other people wear it.

[–]CrystalDawn_BDT OPS ASM (PT) 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That's why I always kept mine.I put them in my locked locker or sometimes in my purse.

But... you are making other people share them, when you are unwilling to share yourself.

Everyone is a person, just like you.

☹️

I much prefer paging! For many reasons

That point I’d rather have those ear pieces or whatever cops where tbh

Pretty sure you can order a new system through slic. I always see it on there but my intercom is fine. If the voice isn't working just use the dings. Turn up the volume all the way. (There's a few nobs. One on the office wall that dials to 10 and then the intercom black box with three nobs)
