I'm getting a connection reset error when using the Firebase Storage API from a Google Cloud Function in Python.

The deployed function is calling one blob-get i.e.

```
from firebase_admin import storage

def fn(request):
  bucket = 'my-firebase-bucket'
  path = '/thing'
  blob = storage.bucket(bucket).get_blob(path)

```

The failure is intermittent; the function has around a 90% success rate. 

It seems more likely to fail the first time the function is called after it is deployed.
