Instead of the narrator turning into a giant insect, however, his co-workers turn into shrimp. It's never explained exactly why and I don't know if it's meant to just be a guy dealing with the tedium of office work by imagining this or if it's supposed to be a metaphor. It's bizarrely amusing that he doesn't seem at all scared or curious as to why it happened but instead just describes the scene. That's where the story fell apart a bit for me; I wasn't clear about a lot what was going, didn't find it particularly described well.
Funny, weird, and short enough though that additional reads might help clear it up.
