Creator's Key Takeaways
I answer the phone and says it's a voice recording message saying that your fire has been detected near your stateroom please proceed immediately to your muster station
I'm there all by my lonesome and it's at this point that I start feeling absolutely ridiculous becoming person there
I'm pretty sure if there was something going on on the ship and I was woken up and I had to abandon ship that I think I did a pretty darn good job
it pays to listen and to remember where to go so even if you really didn't have to go but you can never take anything for granted
