Electrical – Mounting box slightly offset in ceiling: is there an offset mounting bracket that I can use to mount ceiling fan

ceiling-fanelectricaljunction-boxmounting

We're having a new house built, and yesterday we went to check out the progress. They've finished drywalling and sheetrock mudding and we noticed that the electrician installed one box off center. We've already had a very long back and forth with the electrician and the builder over numerous issues, so we're trying to limit our complaints at this time. Is there some sort of a bracket I can buy and mount a flush mount ceiling fan off center to cover this up?

Another thought we had was to maybe rather than a ceiling fan, get some type of a wide light fixture and mount it off center.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

It looks off set I agree, however we cannot see if there is any structure above that required the shift.what I do see is that it looks to be attached to the joist, I am not sure why it is not centered like the one on the far end of the photo unless there there was structure in that locarion, but shifts in lighting like this make it look like low quality work. If there is nothing in the way it should be able to be shifted on the same joists.
