Just curious. For me:
1) Nursery leader was wonderful! I would do it again in a heartbeat.
2) I'm not exactly shy (as everyone in the entire Bloggernacle knows), and I really like to organize and give talks (surprise, surprise) - so I really enjoyed being on the High Council. It helped to have sincere, humble Stake Presidents whom I admire greatly.
3) I had an incredibly humble, gentle, loving Bishop when I was a counselor - and the Bishopric included people with radically different political and religious views. I'd choose that calling without hesitation if I could choose the Bishop, and especially if I could recreate the diversity of the Bishopric.
4) Primary pianist - again, in a heartbeat. Listening to the kids sing . . . gives me chills again just remembering it.

Wow! I agree with 2 and 3, although I've never been on a High Council. I had a very similar experience in a bishopric, though. And 1 isn't bad as long as it could be a joint calling with my wife as nursery leader - she's just great at that. (I can't play the piano for 4.)
Primary chorister was WAY fun. Costumes, voices, wild antics.
LOVED nursery leader.
Enjoy GD Teacher now.
I have amnesia and always think the calling I have is the best. Except when I was the 8-9 year old teacher. Tweens should all be buried until they're ripe.
Primary pianist. And you know what? Lucky me -- that's been my calling for the last 5 years.

Primary chorister, hands down. Especially with the wife at the piano.
Relief Society secretary- I loved being a part of things and having assignments and being able to help, but not having to be in charge or have to do much public speaking. I know that wouldn't give me as much growth, but I sure would love to do it again!
Honestly, my answer to this would have been different a few years ago, but honestly, right now, being calling free as I am is perfect and I have no interest in having any calling, no matter how small, for now.
That said, I imagine that just as my answer would have been different before, it will be different in the future. :D
Early morning seminary teacher.
The kids are really great. You get to bury yourself in the scriptures. You can be creative and crazy. You get to bear your testimony a gozillion times.
Family HIstory Center Director. I loved being able to help others
find family and then see the work get done.
Public Relations at the Ward level (not a calling anymore) because it was missionary work without giving up the internet!
