That one Friday when everything went sideways with a load of bricks

Last summer had a job in Akron where the supplier dropped off the wrong brick color and I didn't catch it until we were three courses deep. Took me and my helper all weekend to tear it out and redo it, cost me about 400 bucks in lost time. Anyone else ever trust a pallet label without double checking the color first?

Tried to order tan mortar once and they gave me buff, didn't notice till I was halfway through a retaining wall and my whole crew had to stop.

Mistakes like that always compound the worst way, don't they.
