# Control bar inventory against shrinkage honestly > Counting rhythm, variance thresholds, and systems distinguishing theft from waste from error. **Track:** 🍸 Beverage & Bar Program · **Domain:** Bar Program · **Level:** intermediate · **~35 min** **Who this is for:** Bar Managers, Bartenders, Beverage Directors, Sommeliers ## When to Use This Skill Counting rhythm, variance thresholds, and systems distinguishing theft from waste from error. Use it whenever a matching task appears in conversation — the agent loads these instructions on demand. ## Steps 1. Count by weight (scale) for spirits; eyeball counts hide 20% variance 2. Set variance tolerance per category; investigate beyond threshold, not below 3. Track comps/spills/waste separately with signatures — they're not mysteries 4. Reconcile POS pours vs depletion weekly; patterns reveal causes 5. Lock high-value bottles with par-level accountability per shift 6. Never accuse on one cycle; trends plus evidence or nothing ## Common Pitfalls - Full-inventory counts only quarterly, variance forever mysterious - Waste logging so punishing it goes underground ## Commands **Install with skills CLI** ```bash npx skills add aniruddhaadak80/skills --skill bar-program-bar-inventory-control ``` **Install globally** ```bash npx skills add aniruddhaadak80/skills --skill bar-program-bar-inventory-control -g ``` --- Part of [aniruddhaadak80/skills](https://github.com/aniruddhaadak80/skills) · Browse all at https://skills.sh
