isn't it crazy that I would be anxious about work if I turned into a bug. Is that an indictment on society, or is that just humans... would I worry about not being to gather berries due to my untimely metamorphosis 50,000 years ago?

Reading this in a very different light after having started with Letter to his Father. Poignant, extremely relatable. Kafka really has a way of embracing the uncomfortable.
