I had a friend who was trying to explain Marxism to me (e.g. capitalists rip you off by paying less value than you make) and I told him that (1) I knew Marxism pretty well and (2) I had just worked at a place that was not able to use me effectively thus I was not earning my keep. I told him that I very much wanted to be "underpaid" in the Marxist sense because I'd have a chance of keeping my job and having a sane work situation.
