[sudo-discuss] [omnilogistics] [Critical] Cannot pass new member Rise Above printing

[David Keenan]

FWIW, I took a break and measured it.. the utility's room's actually 10'7"
wide, and the hallway behind it with the stoves and stuff, is like
9'4". That is really weird that the actual measure is so far off of the
detail drawings.

Has anyone noticed how this is a really weird building?
