    This means you will likely get paid an amount
    less than the value you create for others
You are usually not creating more value then you get paid. Just because an author needs somebody to proof read his million-dollar-bestseller, the proofreader did not create millions of dollars. Just because a picker at Amazon picks stuff that makes Amazon tens of thousands in profit, he did not create that value.

To create value means to create value that otherwise would not exist.

You create some value, otherwise the company would not hire you. Of course the picker is not responsible for all the revenue accrued by the products s/he picks, just a part of it.
