How to tell if you are exploited by your employer

Exploitation is just simply something that has to be accepted in the modern world by any worker at any level of authority, no matter which career sector or role he or she occupies. Whether people like it or not they are going to always be abused or utilized to a certain or uncertain degree by or for the purpose, methods, administrators, cohorts/ co-workers, supervisors, means of obtaining capital, clients/customers, subsidiaries, or internal forces of moral obligation which comprise the modern employee or working human's experience.

Just like anything in this world, exploitation has selectively been defined as the somewhat of an arbitrary situation of discomfort or sorrow brought on by, for the most part, a superior force taking advantage of another party for the reason of getting a way better bottom line, increasing capital, revenue, profit, or productivity. However, one party "taking advantage of another" is not really the only way in which exploitation rears it ugly and deceptive head.

People in this world have standards of competition and moral fulfillment that center around acheiving goals, and as a result, will always be motivated to do something, even if that "something" proves to be doing nothing at all. Everyone is exploited by the value system(s) that they possess. Those value systems are obedient, inadvertently or directly, to a seemingly infinite amount of figures in society that happen to wield the most power and enforce this value system, as well as a subtley implied or explicitly explicated set of morals.

One can certainly be taken adavantage of without being in a state of discomfort, and as a result, exploitation can be enjoyed. The prior is not only true, but there also prevails the possibility that anyone can be exploited directly by their own self as a singular entity, theoretically/hypothetically speaking, if they are the only one who has the value system which they use and a tradeoff of oppurtunity is made. Traditionally, exploitation will always be defined by the utilization of something or someone through selfish or arrogant means. Well, then, it is very plausible to consider that a man might be exploited by his own will to perform a certain task.

Perhaps it is equally clear that not only is exploitation infinite and ever-expanding, but it is very clear that the function or occurance of such a thing purveys itself at all levels entailed by the situation at one time. The omniscience of exploitation is very clear because all human behavior
