1. Gregor wakes up his bedroom like any other day. He needs to get up for work and his parents are making breakfast. This is his ordinary world, but it is made not so ordinary when we discovers that he has changed. Everything is normal at first, but I would say his Call to Adventure is discovering that he is a bug. He has to figure out a way to get out of bed and figure out what's going on.
2. It seems like both the story and the "Red Scare" happened in the same time period. Communists were viewed in a negative light and the whole nation was scared of them. Perhaps Gregor's changing into a bug portrays that he may have communistic views. His parents and boss are repulsed by and scared of him, much like the nation was of communists. They are not understanding of his situation.
