Input: Text: this happened yesterday... it gave me a little scare, but i'm chuckling at myself now.

started the work day normally, headed out to my first job site. i work for the local natural gas company, was out on a call to investigate a potential gas leak at a residence in town. the homeowners has complained of a smell coming from around the gas meter.

the job can get fairly busy in the summer time, and being so busy can lead to making mistakes. i have to admit to cutting corners sometimes in order to keep from going under when the workload is  heavy. i was about to get a rude little awakening though, one that would remind me to pay attention to my surroundings. 

i arrived on site, and as per usual approached the homeowner's gas meter. i needed to dig around the base of the meter, but i often find homeowners leave things piled up around it. there was a brown garden hose coiled up around the base of the meter, so naturally i grabbed it and began to remove it and toss it aside - then i felt a *nasty stinging sensation on my arm*. i quickly glanced down and noticed that i was **holding a fucking snake**. 

i tossed it in the air and ran like a mad man. i *hate* snakes. it wasn't poisonous, and i'm fine. just let this be a friendly reminder to pay attention to your surroundings.

TIFU by not paying attention...
