Why don't people do as they are asked.

5 hours driving to get to site.

Pissing down with rain.  Cold, windy and generally hateful weather.

64 layers of "PPE" including high-vis (actually quite reasonable)  Steel toe boots (ah yes, essential for walking on a pavement), Hard hat. (essential when there is nothing overhead) Gloves (soaking wet, and horrible) and glasses (misted up so I can't see where I'm going.. hence the need for the hard hat and steel-toecap boots perhaps?)

all to look at a bit of kit and realise that what was asked to be done to it has been done in such a half-arsed way that the customer has quite rightly rejected it.

I love delegation.  Delegation of work means you describe what is needed to someone else, to allow them to go off, do a half-arsed job, and then you have to spend three times longer clearing up the mess they have made and then doing it properly.
