On the contrary, most well paying jobs are salary jobs, and the more well paying salary jobs absolutely are jobs where the average worker can consistently make sure they only work 40 hours a week, by choice. It tends to be the lower, lesser paying jobs that try to overwork you and get you to work more than 40 hours a week. I get your viewpoint, since it does fit with mine, where... When I had a salary job, it did feel like they took advantage of me and had me work more than 8 hours, on average. That said, I had visible view into the higher level jobs, and I noticed they, very freely, could make sure they only worked 8 hours, or even less.
Thats not been my experience at all. The salaried jobs Ive come across and worked almost always have you working unpaid hours.
