Also as a part of the labor workforce or proletariat we are no longer are treated as human beings but as objects thats are supposed to be productive in as the buyer of the labor ( bourgeoisie, capitalist, etc) can make a profit. That is why a person can feel he can shout orders at you because you are in your human nature degraded to anobject whose sole purpose is to help someone make a profit. You are in effect a wage slave = someone who sells his time in order to obtain the basic subsistance of life ( food, clothing, shelter, etc) to survive. In that state you feel powerless because basically you are a slave. You have to sell a 3rd or more of your time of the day to another man to manage a human existence.
