Serious question, are we too quick to blame the riggers?

Had a job last month setting a big AC unit on a roof in Austin, and the load kept swinging like crazy even with the tag line. Everyone on site said the riggers must have hooked it wrong. Took me two hours to realize the wind was catching the unit's sheet metal cover like a sail, something the riggers couldn't have known. Has anyone else had a simple site condition cause a huge delay that got blamed on the crew?

If Tuesday's normal for you, you need a better system for handling those surprise calls.
