You’re probably young, but there used to be that job.
And that became obsolete by infranet connections. You know, a local computer not connected to the internet.

Not young. Worked at a supermarket before the internet (technically it existed, but not in supermarkets and such. It was the very early dial up days… pre AOL and such. Anyway, the one manager hated me, and he would have given me that job if it existed. I got along with my coworkers. None of them had that job. Maybe the night time restockers checked once a night or something, I didn’t know all of them. But I don’t so. They just waited for a customer to tell them I believe. But back then, a freezer full wasn’t as big a loss as it is nowadays. And their margins were higher.
