The order was placed nearly a week in advance for a 7:30 am delivery. and was not delivered in part till noon. i was unloading the order at the end of my eight hour shift. Causing me and my crew to work eight hours overtime to get it placed in the roadway. Also the two end shores were the wrong size causing me to shore the excavation a different way
