I've been bit several times really but the reason I'm still cautious and pretty scared of getting bit isn't from the pain (which I know is barely existant) but more because I fear for my snake instead.. I'm sure many of you know what I'm talking about, my reflexes are insanely aggressive, so I could possibly fling my snake off my hand as it strikes or squeeze it hard, both possibly killing it. So. Not good. Gotta learn to get struck at without any reaction and just watch it happen. Pretty hard yeah.
