why it not works var orderQueue = ['1XT567437','1U7857317','1I9222528']; var shipping = [ orderQueue.shift()];

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

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

We just need the String of the first value, not an Array. Remove the square brackets surrounding the shift() call.
