Creator's Key Takeaways
This is our crew cabin. Uh, first thing when we come in, we keep our schedules right up here so we can see when we're working and where we're supposed to be.
We've got a bunch of these hidden around the room. They're just little touch lights.
This is one of my favorite places in our cabin, our monster drawer. Uh, our monster shelf. Keep this as fully stocked as possible at all times.
We have a refrigerator right now. This fridge is actually not working. So, we're um unfortunately waiting on someone to come fix that for us.
