Let's say that for the sake of speed, you are running two slow things in parallel, but you want one to wait for the other.

        sh "sleep 10"  

        // now do something that needs "one" to finish.  There is a good chance that this will run too soon...
        sh 'wget http://something' //for example
    }
}
 

The problem, obviously, is that you can't be sure that the wget will run after part one finishes. (Let's assume that part one creates the file).
