[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the surface area of the shape, we first need to determine the area of each of the six sides and then sum them up.

Given sides:
1. 8 ft x 8 ft = 64 sq. ft
2. 8 ft x 12 ft = 96 sq. ft
3. 12 ft x 20 ft = 240 sq. ft
4. 20 ft x 15 ft = 300 sq. ft
5. 15 ft x 8 ft = 120 sq. ft
6. 8 ft x 20 ft = 160 sq. ft

Total surface area = 64 + 96 + 240 + 300 + 120 + 160 = 980 sq. ft

Therefore, the surface area of the shape is 980 square feet.
