Bat

A few days later, I attended another gangsters' meeting.

The major subject this time was would any of our trained fellow agree to take up the training of a second specialty, which is in urgent service need, so that he (or she, no discrimination here) may have a chance of promotion a year or two later when such a post appears.

Sitting next to me, LS whispered, "Who would? What happen if you ask him to have the trans-sexual operation and then you refuse to get marry with him - what could he do !?"

I laughed - as softly as I could so that I wouldn't catch the attention of the others. A little story from the Aesop's Fables came to my mind - with a bit of twist.

Here it goes:

**************************

To begin with, bat is an animal.

But, when it starts flying, all other beasts regard it as a bird.

And, even worse, when the bat meets other birds, they all think, "Yes, you could fly, but, although you appeared old enough, you are never as experienced or properly brought up for flying as us." In short, they do not think bat is one of them either.

That's why bat would only appear at night - their existence could not stand any sunshine.
