Yes, in just about every blue collar job. The CEO does not do as much work as the order selector in a warehouse, as much work as the undocumented migrant workers on the lines in the factory, or as much work as the cooks in a restaurant to give a few examples. Anyone that's worked in those industries knows what I'm talking about.
Is "work" only boxes stacked or nuts bolted? Does all work have the same value?
No, not all work necessarily has the same value.
But the value of some kinds of work has been wildly overinflated compared to others.
And even then, all work done should return enough to live off of.
