Explanation:

Answer:

B. Gregor's having a job he hated that made him dissatisfied with life.

Explanation:

The novella "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka displays the tale of a salesman Gregor who wakes up one morning and finds himself inexplicably transformed into "monstrous vermin" and struggles to adjust himself to the new surroundings. This abrupt and anonymous description is juxtaposed to the mundane reality of the time. He reflects his job as a traveling salesman which he finds as exhaustive and never-ending traffic. He hates getting up early and going off to working with a despot(his employer), but he was enforced to do so as he was the sole breadwinner of his family who was working(unwillingly) to pay off his father's debts. Thus, the aspect that could be considered normal and ordinary for the time the novella was written is, Gregor having an exhaustive job that reflects the alienation of individual self which was quite prevalent at the time.
