basic verify - output shows start with read then write?

[Slow bucks <frankwhitebe@gmail.com>]

Strange but during a verify job the output shows that it executed the 
verify/read operation first then write:

I used the example from here:

Isn't the results suppose to show the write activity first then the 
verify/read?
