PERSONAL QUESTION

It has become a joke,
a parody of the touchy-feely,
New Agey kind of question
a prospective employee might be
asked at a job interview:
"What animal best describes who you are?"

What I want to know is why
they never ask interviewees
to name a plant.

Think of the possibilities for interpretation
if you said, for example:

a rose
a redwood tree
a Venus flytrap
a potato
