So, I caught a rattlesnake with my bare hands. Now what?
Sure, I looked pretty cool when I grabbed the snake with my Steve Erwin-esque aplomb, but now that everyone stopped clapping I’m not sure what to do with it. At least it was totally worth it. I could tell everyone on the camping trip was really impressed by the way they said, “Wow, I’m impressed,” and, “Please stop!”
I’m pretty sure I heard more people saying, “please stop,” than, “wow, I’m impressed,” but that’s just jealousy, which can be more venomous than the quivering fangs of the snake in my hand. It goes to show you that the corporate world can be even more savage than nature, especially these goons. To think, they almost didn’t let me come, but if temps weren’t supposed to come to the company camping trip, then who would have caught the snake?
Now they’re just staring at me waiting for me to do something with it. Eager to see what their hero will do next. (more…)
