Why Site and Office Never See the Same Job
Why Site and Office Never See the Same Job. Two people can watch the same match and come away talking about completely different moments. One remembers the missed chance. The other remembers the referee’s decision. Both were watching closely.
Neither is wrong. They just noticed different things.
The confusion only starts when they assume they saw the same game.

Why Site Diaries Are Always Late
Ask someone how a holiday went a few weeks after they get back and the story is always smooth. The good bits come first.
The awkward parts are shortened. The order of events is slightly rearranged.
Nothing is invented. It’s just been edited by time.

The Job Looked Finished. The Paperwork Didn’t.
The Job Looked Finished. The Paperwork Didn’t. Finishing a construction job can feel a bit like packing up a house move. The furniture is in place, the boxes are gone, and the place looks settled. From a distance, it feels done.

But without proof, the conversation can’t move on.
Construction projects run into the same problem once the moment has passed.
Anyone who has run construction projects for long enough will recognise the situation. The work was completed, the instruction was followed, and

Agreed on Site. Argued About Later.
Arranging to meet someone can feel straightforward at the time. A place is mentioned, a rough time agreed, and both people walk away thinking it’s settled.
Later, when one person is waiting and the other hasn’t arrived, the details sound different. One thought “around seven” meant something else. The other remembers a different location.
No one was trying to be unclear. The agreement just wasn’t as fixed as it felt.
Every construction project involves change. Conditions diffe
