11Overview2233McKenzie Furniture Store is a home furnishings retailer in Bliss Bay that offers an active career path. Unlike rabbit hole careers where your Zoi disappears for the duration of their shift, McKenzie lets you see the store interior and control your Zoi as they perform tasks during work hours. The career has two ranks: Cashier and Manager.445566McKenzie is exclusive to Bliss Bay. The store can accommodate up to 2 employees simultaneously. Players living in Dowon should look at the AZ Convenience Store for a similar retail career.7788Career Ranks991010PositionSalary (Meow)ScheduleDays/WeekTypeCashier3609:00 AM - 6:00 PM3ActiveManager9189:00 AM - 6:00 PM3Active1111Both positions are open to Young Adult, Adult, and Middle-Aged Zois.

Tasks are split into morning and afternoon blocks with individual time limits. Completing tasks fills the promotion gauge. Missing deadlines slows promotion progress but does not result in termination.20202121Morning Tasks (3-Hour Window)22222323TaskObjectRequirementTime LimitWatch the counterPOS Machine30 minutes3 hoursWater plantsFlowerpots3 times3 hoursClean the storeFlowerpots/displays3 times3 hoursChange into uniformWardrobe1 time3 hours2424Afternoon Tasks (6-Hour Window)25252626TaskObjectRequirementTime LimitWatch the counterPOS Machine60 minutes6 hoursWater plantsFlowerpots5 times6 hoursClean the storeFlowerpots/displays5 times6 hours2727The afternoon block has longer time limits but requires more task repetitions. Counter duty doubles from 30 to 60 minutes, and both watering and cleaning increase from 3 to 5 repetitions.28282929Promotion Mechanics30303131The promotion gauge fills through consistent task completion across multiple shifts. Active careers like McKenzie allow promotion in roughly 3 to 4 working days (about one in-game week), which is faster than rabbit hole careers that typically take 8 to 10 working days. If the gauge is full but no promotion happens, there is no vacancy for the Manager position yet.32323333Three unexcused absences result in termination. Always ensure your Zoi arrives at work on scheduled days.34343535Workplace Tips36363737Focus watering tasks on the flowerpots near the entrance rather than interior displays, as they are closer togetherConcentrate cleaning efforts near the POS station so you can quickly switch between cleaning and counter dutyThe store has multiple POS machines; pause the game at shift start to locate your assigned registerKeep your Zoi supervised during counter duty since they may wander off on autonomyThe 3-day schedule leaves plenty of free time for skill building and hobbies38383939Comparison to Other Retail Careers40404141StoreCityCashier PayManager PayTypeMcKenzie FurnitureBliss Bay360918ActivePosey's Surf ShopBliss Bay360918ActiveAZ Convenience StoreDowon360918ActiveGolden Apple BurgerBliss Bay270N/AActive4242McKenzie shares the same 360/918 Meow salary structure as Posey's Surf Shop and AZ Convenience Store. The key difference between them is location and the specific in-store tasks. McKenzie's tasks center on plant care, store cleaning, and POS operation, while the other stores have different task mixes like shelf restocking and floor cleaning.43434444Manager Role45454646After promotion, the Manager position at McKenzie continues as an active career with a similar task structure but at higher pay. Managers oversee store operations and handle more responsibility during shifts. The work schedule stays at 3 days per week with the same 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM hours.
