Yeah, I lost my temper with a customer and could have lost my job the other night. A few months ago this man brought in a bag, obviously by the looks of it it had a rather large snake in it. He said he could no longer keep it, he set it down and just walked out before I could get his information.

This snake had.
1. Mites.
2. 2 Layers of stuck shed, and he was IN shed agian.
3. Severly under-weight (this animal was 6ft long and as skinny as my wrist, which is pretty small)
4. He had RI.
5. Incredibly weak, and dehydrated.

We had to get the animal put down, the vet said he hadn't seen a snake in this bad of condition in years and he was already to far gone to really try anything to nurish him back to health. I started crying, it was horrible.

Anyways. This man, who dropped the snake off just happened to come into my work just as I clocked out. I don't get intimadated easily, and mind you this man was 6'3 and a good 250lbs pounds of muscle. He seen me coming and he just smiles and says "Hows the snake doing" All I could say was "Are you KIDDING ME, what is WRONG with you?" I went OFF, I don't normally have a mean bone in my body but I chewed him apart. My manager had to come over and pull me into the back room as that pathetic piece of trash just stood there trying to stare me down with a smirk on his face.

Nothing deserves to be treated that way, these animals rely on us to take care of them. I don't understand how someone could do such a thing.
