When describing how I feel about my job, what has a better ring to it trained monkey or trained seal?

At 9:43 AM, The Jule said...: Which is worse, to be a trained monkey or to be a substitute monkey trainer?

My junior year I was developing an ad for Helping Hands in Cambridge. It is a school that trains capuchin monkeys to help quadriplegics go about their lives. The monkeys are essentially more evolved Seeing Eye dogs. While I was not allowed immediate contact with the monkeys, seeing them with their owners was a very uplifting experience.
