What cultural norm of 1915 Europe does Gregor show by being bored and unhappy with his job?

The correct answer to this question is:

Gregor was showing the cultural norm of 1915 Europe as "Men often worked unfulfilling jobs".

This was based on the novel by Franz Kafka called The Metamorphosis. Gregor was a traveling salesman and he really hates his work and his boss. The one thing that keeps him from this job is to support the family and pay their family debts.
