This works in the javascript console in chrome, but is not passing in the challenge.

script.js 
var orderQueue = ['1XT567437','1U7857317','1I9222528'];
var shipping = [orderQueue.shift()];

Hi Katie,

The reason why it's not passing the challenge is that adding the brackets is redundant. By returning the result from the shift operation on orderQueue, you are storing an array in the variable shipping and so it does not need explicit brackets.
