"Wage slave": Is a socialist meme that is now used by people who don't know what it means. Originally it meant that your employer was "stealing" the residual value of your labor by only paying you a single wage. Thus you are a slave because you can never get ahead because you're boss is stealing the majority of your labor.
It has now morphed to mean working for someone else, probably how OP meant it. The base definition Isa commissary lie, however.
