Each episode focuses on the real challenges of running a shift, supporting store managers, handling employees, and keeping operations on track in a fast-paced environment. Assistant managers are often expected to lead without formal training. Survive helps bridge that gap by breaking down shift management, team accountability, inventory control, and problem-solving in a way that can be applied immediately on the job. If you are stepping into leadership or currently managing shifts, this podcast will help you build confidence, make better decisions, and handle the daily pressure of store operations.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-09T10:21:13.816057+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/survive-essentials-for-c-store-assistant-managers-6571992"},"episode":{"title":"INVENTORY DISCREPANCIES (AUDITING THE ELECTRONIC JOURNAL)","slug":"inventory-discrepancies-auditing-the-electronic-journal","published_at":"2026-05-09T02:28:04+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/survive-essentials-for-c-store-assistant-managers-6571992/inventory-discrepancies-auditing-the-electronic-journal","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/survive-essentials-for-c-store-assistant-managers-6571992","url":"https://share.transistor.fm/s/9d1ccae6","audio_url":"https://media.transistor.fm/9d1ccae6/04301f77.mp3","summary":"SHOW NOTES (SURVIVE VERSION) Episode Title: Inventory Discrepancies: Auditing the Electronic Journal (Episode 86) Episode Description: \"The items were not physically stolen by a customer.
