Episode Title: Year-End Inventory Prep: The Assistant Manager’s Audit-Resilience System (Episode 116) 

Episode Description: "You are an Assistant Manager who is fundamentally misunderstanding the difference between 'cleaning' and 'control'." In this episode of Survive, Mike Hernandez explains why Assistant Managers must stop being "audit-sprinters" and start being "systems-managers" who maintain audit-resilience through daily operational discipline.

What You Will Learn:

• Rolling Inventory Audits: Moving from last-minute panic to a weekly, category-by-category verification schedule.
• Invoice Reconciliation: Ensuring your paper trail is as audit-proof as your physical shelf count.
• Team-Discipline Loops: Why "Audit-Readiness" must be a permanent, daily part of your team's training and culture.
• Audit-Resilience: Transitioning from reactive cleanup to proactive, systemic control of inventory.
