All labour is exploited, even the most pampered employees. That's why it's important that even those most well-paid and well-treated employees lend their support to others through supporting unions and the global labour movement.
> Sure, you might consider yourself exploited with a measly 100k+/year wage because your CEO makes over 200x that, but the majority of the population will disagree and have no sympathy on that being remotely resembling exploitation.
Divide and conquer has been the oppressors' tactic of choice for millennia. The tried-and-tested counter is class solidarity. Don't fool yourself into thinking you aren't working class just because your wages are higher than others.
