FWIW, I seriously doubt the sheetrock was 8'

I was a builder for 40+ yrs. Sheetrock comes in 4' widths and 8,10,12,14 & 16' lengths. But today, the box stores have scaled it back to 8 and 12' store availability. It makes for more manageable inventory.
Typically, the sheetrock is run horizontally. So you only have one mud joint on the wall at 4' height. 2 pieces of 4' wide sheetrock makes for the 8 ft ceiling height. You can stand the sheetrock. But it is not the recommended method because you end up with a mud joint every 4' due to the 4' width.
=========================
You paid HOW MUCH for that electrical receptacle?!!! Are YOU nuts?
