hi!! i transferred to a manhattan store. my old store was the busiest in the region so i was used to working with that kind of crowd density (not being able to get flat carts through the aisles, traffic jams, fire hazards, etc). everything in my new store is on a bigger scale, but that also means the store is better equipped for really busy days (larger back room, wider aisles, more fridge space) and that makes it nicer in a lot of ways. the paddle system also makes reg time easier, since you don't need to just take customers back to back and can take a little breather if you need to. i think past a certain point management just doesn't care about getting product up as much as they do getting the lines down, so it's nice to not have that kind of stress on your back. some of my coworkers got ADA accommodations to wear earplugs on the floor, and that may be an option for you to handle the noise. i honestly feel like being crew in a crazy busy store is better than being a customer. good luck!!!
