Convenience Store Career
March 6, 2026 at 11:38 AM
Major expansion with detailed shift tasks, promotion mechanics, and gameplay tips from verified sources
The AZ Convenience Store is a retail shop in Dowon that offers an active career path with two ranks: Cashier and Manager. As an active career, players accompany their Zoi into the store during shifts and complete tasks directly. The store operates on a three-day work week with shifts from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. AZ is the only retail career available in Dowon, making it the go-to option for players who want active retail work without moving to Bliss Bay.
Position | Salary (Meow) | Schedule | Days/Week | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Cashier | 360 | 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM | 3 | Active |
Manager | 918 | 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM | 3 | Active |
Both positions are open to Young Adult, Adult, and Middle-Aged Zois. The store has a limit of 1 employee slot. The promotion from Cashier to Manager raises pay from 360 to 918 Meow per shift.
Open the Smartphone and navigate to the Careers app.

Select Cashier (AZ Convenience Store).
Your Zoi starts their first shift on the next scheduled work day.
The task list appears in the top-left corner of the screen during each shift. Tasks are divided into morning and afternoon blocks, each with time limits. All tasks at AZ can be completed in one area of the store, making this one of the most beginner-friendly active careers in the game.
Task | Object | Requirement | Time Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
Clean store floors | Floor areas | 3 times | 4 hours |
Clean tables | Tables | 3 times | 4 hours |
Organize cereal shelf items | Cereal shelf | 3 times | 4 hours |
Monitor counter | Stool (POS area) | 60 minutes | 4 hours |
Change into uniform | Wardrobe | 1 time | 4 hours |
Task | Object | Requirement | Time Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
Clean store floors | Floor areas | 3 times | 4 hours |
Clean tables | Tables | 3 times | 4 hours |
Monitor counter | Stool (POS area) | 90 minutes | 4 hours |
Restock cereal shelf items | Cereal shelf | 1 time | 5 hours |
The afternoon counter duty is longer at 90 minutes compared to 60 minutes in the morning. The restock task has a generous 5-hour window but only triggers when customers have emptied the shelf.
Completing shift tasks fills the promotion gauge. Active careers allow promotion in approximately 3 to 4 working days (about one in-game week), which is significantly faster than the 8 to 10 days typical for rabbit hole careers. If the gauge is full but no promotion happens, there is no vacancy for the Manager role yet.
Three unexcused absences result in being fired. Always make sure your Zoi shows up on scheduled work days. Shortening your schedule may slow promotion progress.
One of the biggest challenges at AZ is keeping your Zoi on task. During counter duty, Zois on autonomy may wander off the stool to do other things. Stay zoomed in on the store and redirect your Zoi if they start to leave their post. This is especially important during the 90-minute afternoon counter session, which is long enough for autonomous Zois to get distracted multiple times.
Store | City | Cashier Pay | Manager Pay | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Dowon | 360 | 918 | Active | |
Bliss Bay | 360 | 918 | Active | |
Bliss Bay | 360 | 918 | Active | |
Dowon | 540 | N/A | Active |
AZ is the only retail store in Dowon. It shares the same salary tiers as Bliss Bay's McKenzie and Posey's. The Dowon Deli offers a higher Cashier salary at 540 Meow but lacks a Manager promotion path. Despite being classified as part-time, the AZ Manager position at 918 Meow per shift pays more than several full-time entry-level careers.
AZ is considered one of the most beginner-friendly active careers because all tasks are in one compact area
The three-day work week leaves four days free for skill building, university, or running a business
Monitor your Zoi during counter duty to prevent them from wandering away on autonomy
The restock task only appears when shelves are empty; if no restocking is needed, the task cannot be completed that shift
At Manager level, this is one of the best income-to-time ratios in the game: 918 Meow for three 9-hour shifts per week
