Julian has a point. So in half hearted attempt to address this, post in the comments the answer to the question "What sort of animal would you like to be and why?" Humorous (clean) answers only. Terrible puns are allowed.
My housemate is preparing for a job interview and mentioned that the above question is a favourite of HR managers. Apparently it's a trick of sorts. If your answer contains reference to characteristics of that animal then it means you aspire to posses those characteristics which in turn means you don't currently posses them. So if your answer is say, a Lion and you make reference to qualities such as strength and leadership it means you currently lack strength and leadership type qualities. Or something like that. Maybe.

Isn’t there something here along the lines of “Eagles soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines”
The idea of being a bird (the feathered type) does appeal – being able to fly and crap on people I hate. I guess from your example this means I will never make a senior manager!
