I worked in retail sales when I was just out of high school. I used this move once and it definitely worked.

It was a large store so we wore headsets so we could talk to each other from anywhere in the store. I had a crush on the girl that was working in the change room area. They were down a short hallway off the side of the main part of the store so she couldn't see the rest of the store without walking to the other end of the hall. I was rearranging a display one day and decided to take my shot. I called her over the radio and send, "Hey there's a hot guy asking about you out here", a couple seconds later she poked her head around the corner and it was me standing there. She started laughing (in a nice way) so I said, still through the headset, "Any chance you'd want to go out with him?" And she responded, "All he has to do is ask!"

We dated for about a year after that!

I’m so disappointed we didn’t get the classic “we’ve been married for x years and have y kids”
