(This isn't the edition I read but it's what came up in the search)

I never read this in school or anything. I finally read it for the first time because, of all things, a Tumblr post. And I'm glad I'm reading it at this age cause I don't think I would have gotten it in my teens or whatever. Especially the part where you wake up as a bug and the first thing you think is, what happens with my job. Like maybe today it would be, is there some kind of medical leave that applies, and how will I possibly fill out the paperwork? And you know that shouldn't be the first thing, but that's the world you live in. And at first it seems kind of humorous, a parody of careerist attitudes, but he was kind of right in the end
