You would try very hard to sell something. If you were lucky a customer would show up with actual cash... In the meantime you could sweep the floor, arrange the items on the shelves and wash the windows. Maybe, if you had a friendly boss you could listen to the radio and hear Jack Benny.

For additional reference, watch any three episodes of "The Waltons"

The Brick Store in New Hampshire is an old one; it's one of the oldest in the US that stands (and runs) today. The Dixboro General store is pretty famous, as well, and is a big one.

The US recovery from the Great Depression was accelerated by what?

Recovery from the depression was mainly boosted by a reboot in the economic interests of the people. This included shops reopening and real money being distributed again. During the depression some states had been printing cheap paper money that barely had any value. Inflation was heavily spread because of how desperate store owners were and how they knew how much people needed their products. You have to remember, there were shortages of almost everything during this time.
